SPOTTED: Thiago Silva saves Kepa, makes two goal line clearances in one minute!

Thiago Silva saved what would have been a goal for Brighton in the second minute against Chelsea. This of course is not the first time the veteran had made goal line clearances in critical goalkeeping situations. 

This comes just after another goal-saving clearance against RB Salzburg in the Champions League earlier this week. The Brazilian had cleared what would have been an equalizer for the Austrian side, but a quick intervention from him had saved the Blues after Kepa missed a cross. 

Thiago was back at it again today, this time against Brighton. In just one minute, Thiago Silva prevented two goal attempts while filling in for Kepa Arrizabalaga.

Mourinho’s side were drawing 2-2 against Swansea City and the game had entered injury-time when the incident occurred. The revered Portuguese coach was furious with the medics, telling reporters afterwards: “I wasn’t happy with my medical staff because even if you are a medical doctor or secretary on the bench, you have to understand the game.” Mourinho felt that the medical intervention had affected his team’s chances of scoring a late winner and securing two more points.
