Arsenal and Colombia goalkeeper David Ospina pulled off an outstanding double save to deny Argentina
duo Sergio Aguero and Lionel Messi at the Copa America on Saturday morning.
The 26-year-old got down well to stifle the Manchester City striker's attempt before, somehow, clambering back to his feet to deny the Barcelona forward's follow up header.
Although Ospina could be about to be replaced by Petr Cech as the Gunners' first-choice shot stopper, with the Czech Republic international's move to the Emirates Stadium from Chelsea all but complete, the South American clearly isn't going to give up the number one jersey without a fight.
Unfortunately, despite Ospina's heroics between the sticks, Colombia eventually lost their quarter-final clash on penalties, with Boca Juniors bound Carlos Tevez slotting home the crucial spot kick.
You can see Ospina's spectacular double save against Argentina in the video below. Cech has competition, doesn't he?
