Get that garbage out of here!
On a Saturday where 'keepers across Europe were sacrificing their bodies, Jan Oblak got in on the action during Atletico Madrid's 2-0 win at Cordoba.
After Jose Angel Crespo flicked a header towards the top corner of goal, Oblak produced a phenomenal diving save, launching his body backwards and dangerously close to the post in order to preserve his clean sheet.
Oblak's save was eerily similar to one that Everton 'keeper Tim Howard made during his side's 1-0 win at Southampton, and was arguably more impressive than the one-handed stop Manuel Neuer made in the final moments of Bayern Munich's 1-0 win over rivals Borussia Dortmund.
