It is rare to see a goalkeeper save two penalties in the same match. However, this Friday during a breathtaking Monaco-Nice, Marcin Bulka managed to achieve this feat. In great form at the start of the season, the Polish goalkeeper disgusted Folarin Balogun and greatly contributed to the success of the Aiglons on the Rock (0-1).
Questioned after the meeting, the former PSG player made some juicy confessions about his two saves against the American ASM striker: “The team is the heroes tonight. It’s good to save two penalties in Monaco who are a difficult opponent. It was a complicated derby, more than just a match for us. I managed to do my best not to concede any goals. You have to take advantage, it doesn’t happen every weekend. I didn’t study Balogun’s penalties, I acted on pure instinct. I know he missed the same one against us last season. He had taken the same spot as his first penalty this evening. In the end, I analyzed it well and it gave me confidence for the second. Mentally, it’s difficult for a striker I think.»
