#5 David Ospina puts forward his case

Ad

Some things in life are simply beyond your control. In situations like that, all you can and should do is and hope for the best. The news that Petr Cech was set to become Arsenal’s first signing of the summer would have been the last thing that David Ospina would have wanted to hear before a crucial clash against Argentina.

With many suspecting that the move marks the beginning of the end of his time at Arsenal, Ospina showed in the perfect manner just why he deserves to stay. Although he could do nothing in the shootout, the main reason the game finished goalless was because of his heroics in between the sticks.

Whether it was a fantastic double save from Sergio Aguero and Lionel Messi in the first half or a fingertip save to deny Nicolas Otamendi in the second, the Colombian shot-stopper showed Arsene Wenger just why he deserves his spot in the squad.
