Our goalkeeping nerd IanWatson1 has indulged himself with five of the best double saves of all time. And one triple save.

Excluding the ones we’ve forgotten or couldn’t find videos for, here are the five best double saves that sprang to mind…Meslier’s double drop wasn’t even the best by a Premier League keeper stopping a Prem striker’s penalty before keeping out the rebound too.

The Arsenal keeper cleaned up his own mess after bringing down Luis Suarez. With Liverpool having already missed five penalties that season, Kuyt grabbed the ball and sent it to Szczesny’s right but the Poland stopper read it and parried back into play. Presented with a second opportunity, Kuyt aimed for the opposite side and though he shanked his attempt, it still took an incredible change of direction from Szczesny to get across and keep the scores level.

Liverpool were three minutes from a Champions League final penalty shoot-out having clawed back a three-goal deficit in Istanbul. But all that good work looked set to go to waste when Andriy Shevchenko rose to meet a Serginho cross. But Dudek raised his arm and the ball tw*tted against his hand. Really, it ought to have taken his fingers off but instead, from underneath the crossbar, the ball was somehow diverted over it. Dudek could barely hide his pride. A rare feeling, apparently.
