5 most insane saves ever made in the Premier League

#3 Craig Gordon v Bolton Wanderers

Gordon’s save was awarded the ‘Best Save’ in Premier League’s 20-year-old history back in 2012

Gordon’s transfer to Sunderland in 2007 was at that time the highest transfer fees (£9m) paid by an English club for a goalkeeper and the record stood till 2011 when Manchester United got David De Gea for £17m. The player spent five seasons at the Stadium of Light but his time at Sunderland came to a sad end as he was one of the nine players released by the club in 2012 after some indifferent performances by the Scottish international.

The best moment of Gordon’s time at Sunderland was against Bolton Wanderers in 2010. The goalkeeper made a stunning save in the stoppage time of the first half as he somehow managed to keep a ball out of the goal. Bolton player Zat Knight hit the ball from extremely close range but was denied by Gordon’s reflexes.

In 2012, this save was awarded as the Best Save in the Premier League’s 20-year history.
