Guillermo Ochoa makes immediate impact in Salernitana debut

It certainly was not a pretty start yesterday against Serie A’s second best club in AC Milan for ‘Memo’ Ochoa and his new club Salernitana. By the 15th minute, they found themselves down two goals at home. And that was including an incredible 1-on-1 save by the Mexican keeper against Rafael Leao in the 6th minute of action. But the Rossoneri attack wasn’t about to seize there.

He stopped a wide open Olivier Giroud strike from inches outside the six yard box with his leg despite diving to the wrong side. That’s right, his leg. He had another great stop on a 1-on-1 against LB Theo Hernández which was eventually deemed offside, but a great save nonetheless.
