Oblak: Historic Zamora Without Playing in Girona
Breaking news for the Colchoneros fans! Jan Oblak, our Slovenian wall, wins his sixth Zamora Trophy, an unprecedented feat in Spanish football! Despite not traveling to Girona due to physical discomfort, Oblak celebrates this recognition thanks to an impeccable league season.
His numbers speak for themselves: only 30 goals conceded in 36 matches, a coefficient of 0.83 that crowns him as the best goalkeeper in the competition. The decision not to risk him in Montilivi is a sign of the respect and value that the club has for Oblak’s effort throughout the season.
In his place, Juan Musso will have the opportunity to defend the Rojiblanca goal, thus saying goodbye to Atlético. Cholo Simeone did not skimp on praise for his star goalkeeper, highlighting his personal growth and his importance within the team.
“I have no doubt that he is among the best goalkeepers in the world,” said the Argentine coach. Oblak has once again been the team’s savior, with memorable performances such as the one he starred in against Barcelona at the Metropolitano. His miraculous saves have kept Atlético in the fight for the top spots for much of the season. Another Zamora for the legend of Jan Oblak!
