  • He says that he would have been proud to make a similar save. But the thing is he HAS made a save close to that of Banks. It was against some European team, which I don't remember the name of.

  • Absolutely Sopphopper. The save you're thinking of was against Rapid Vienna away. A remarkable save.

  • @Corbon440 You just CANNOt be English to post up a comment like that!!! That was THE save of the century.It will NEVER be seen again. Even Pele said it was the best goal he never scored. "The Banks ofEngland" was one of the greatest keeper in the world..... medidtate on it..............cosmetics, you have no idea...

  • @sosdkny

    Yeah a lot of people forget (or don't know) that England still lost the game against Brazil 0:1 so Banks' save was just for cosmetics.

  • @fluffymole0913 yea he has, really noticeable when he says ''watch over and over again'' @ 00:37.

  • THis was a great save, no doubt! But Zoff's save against Oscar's header in the dying minutes of the 1982 Italy-Brazil match was just as good and important. Oscar scores then Italy are out.

  • Is it me or has he got a slightly Manc accent?

  • @Sopphopper Its Rapid Vienna. I just saw the video. :)

  • @resilienceman agree, different conditions, much lighter balls, better pitch, better/lighter boots to run in etc...

  • The chair he's sitting on has 2 legs short than the other 2.

  • stupid fucking adds!
