Chelsea goalkeeper Kepa makes two crucial saves in a penalty shootout to help his team beat Villarreal 6-5 in UEFA SuperCup ⚽🔥
Chelsea's Cesar Azpilicueta and teammates celebrate with the trophy after winning the penalty shoot-out and the European Super Cup Action at Windsor Park, Belfast, Northern Ireland on August 11, 2021 started the new season as they ended the last with a European trophy by beating Villarreal 6-5 on penalties after a 1-1 draw to win the UEFA Super Cup in Belfast.
The Spaniard, who has lost his place as number one since joining the club for a world record fee for a goalkeeper in 2018, was introduced late in extra-time as a substitute for the shootout by Thomas Tuchel. Kepa famously refused to be replaced by former Chelsea boss Maurizio Sarri in a League Cup final defeat to Manchester City two years ago."It was not spontaneous," said Tuchel who explained the plan had been hatched in the FA Cup last season."Kepa has the best percentage at saving penalties, the analysing guys and goalkeeping coaches showed me the data. We spoke to the players that this could happen when we play in knockout games. It's fantastic how Edouard accepted it.
