A goalkeeper for a big team doesn't have to save many shots per match, but the ones that are on target, he must clear them all. Barça needed a keeper with those qualities, and Joan is exceeding all expectations.

In the Supercopa, he already shined with two saves to prevent what would have been the equalizer against Real Madrid and send the match to penalties.

And today, with just a minute and a half left before the final whistle, he literally denied Racing de Santander the goal that would have sent the match to extra time.

The man responsible for guarding the posts for the Blaugrana side is proving in every match that he is responsible for the points his team earns and, now, also that he is key in the qualifiers.
