#4 Edwin Van Der Sar
Edwin Van Der Sar is a name well recognised in the Premier League, especially at Old Trafford. His name will never be forgotten at Manchester United. The legendary goalkeeper did really well to be on the list. He met Lionel Messi a couple of times and somehow, managed to silence the Argentina magician.
He kept Messi at bay in some crucial matches. The pair clashed in the knock out stages of the UEFA Champions League on April 23, 2008. Van Der Sar produced some impressive efforts to keep both Messi and Barcelona goalless in the clash that ended 0-0 at Camp Nou. In the reverse fixture on April 29, 2008, he repeated the feat again in a silent night for Messi and Manchester United eliminated Barcelona with a narrow 1-0 win.
However, Messi later got his revenge when the two teams met again, this time at the final of the same competition, scoring a goal in a 2-0 victory for Barcelona on May 28, 2009.
