Video: Goalkeeper makes double save from penalty, defender clears third shot with bicycle kick

Triple penalty save Swiss League
Aarau saved three shots on goal in four seconds

How often do you see a penalty being saved and the rebound saved not once but twice?

The incident happened in the Swiss league when FC Zurich played Aarau.

Amine Chermiti had first scored from the penalty but it had to be retaken because players entered the box before he kicked it.

He then took a second penalty, but the shot was first saved by the goalkeeper who dived to his left to save.

Chermiti then tried to score off the rebound, but that too was thwarted by the goalkeeper who, this time, dived to his right.

The rebound off this save almost ended in the back of the net too after Chermiti headed it towards goal, if not for the defender who acrobatically cleared the ball off the goal line.
