Chelsea goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga has been hailed as a mind-reader following his late penalty save against Plymouth in the FA Cup on Saturday.

The Blues were leading 2-1 in extra-time against the League One outfit when Malang Sarr clumsily brought down Ryan Hardie in the box in the 116th minute.

However, Kepa saved Hardie's spot-kick down low to his left to ensure that a nervy afternoon at Stamford Bridge ended in Chelsea progressing to the fifth round.
