I'm sorry. It's a great save, but what else could he have done? He sees a striker and sticks up a foot. It looks awesome, but wouldn't any goalie do that? Not to take anything away from lloris, he had a great game, but ... Was that save really that impressive?
And to reiterate, not having a dig at hugo. I love the man with all my heart. I just thought that save was of the kind - looks very good, but who wouldn't have done it? Is it the sticking up of the foot part that is good? Osnt that sort of instinctive, wouldn't anyone? Am I just drunk and stupid? Drunk, certainly.

It’s the speed of his reaction to lift his leg going in the wrong direction
Could easily be luck but at this level you give the benefit of the doubt to the keeper that he meant that IMO

I must admit, I have questioned Hugo's ability to deliver in the big games for us, it's when he tends to have his off days imo. Excellent tonight though, and we haven't had many bigger games in recent years.

The one from Ronaldo was better imho.
The ball is thumped and swerves.
Most keepers are beaten by that because they go right - Hugo even went right and his right arm was going up. I have no idea how he even got his left arm up, left alone tipped it over.

Even his kicking was good tonight.

Outstanding.

I agree, some would have got a hand to it but not stopped it, to get a strong enough hand to touch it over with so little reaction time was amazing
He should kick it longer more often (like he did tonight), as we are actually quite good at winning the 2nd ball and starting an attack from it.

Presumably following instructions because we had Kane and Llorente up top. Maybe also attempting to play it out from the back might have been too dodgy against the likes of Ronaldo, Isco, Benzema & co because they would certainly have come hunting.

Was quite impressed by it. Most of the time he made perfect kicks, which we haven't seen of him... ever.

Lucky to have him and to have had him so long. It's no coincidence that our good years of recent time, happen to be the same years we've had him between the sticks.
Settled our back four and regularly keeps us in games with wonder saves.

Indeed, if only Hugo was dead. Ah well.
O Captain! My Captain! our fearful trip is done;
The ship has weather'd every rack, the prize we sought is won;
The port is near, the bells I hear, the people all exulting,
While follow eyes the steady keel, the vessel grim and daring:
But O heart! heart! heart!
O the bleeding drops of red,
Where on the deck my Captain lies,
Fallen cold and dead.

I think we'd just forgotten him a little because he's not had as much to do for the last 2 or so seasons since we've become good.

I've supported the club since about 1984 and Hugo is easily the best keeper we've had in that time in my opinion. I know he makes the odd mistake but by and large, he's excellent.
However, I think it's a sign of how far we've come in recent years that we no longer view him as too good for us. I remember after Tactics Tim's season and even Poch's first one that we were all saying "enjoy him while you can, he'll move on to better things after this season." I love Hugo but I now think we have a club, a manager, facilities and a squad that he doesn't look too good for. And I think he's world class.

I like the cat saves. He is that good he doesn't need to stand in the middle of the goal
Edir: Nice technique from the kid in addressing the ball (or whatever it is).

That's amazing! Most cats I know would just sit there with extreme indifference. Possibly licking themselves.I like the cat saves. He is that good he doesn't need to stand in the middle of the goal
