That Slovenia is renowned for exceptional goalkeepers has been known for quite some time. In fact, for more than a decade, our goalkeepers have been impressing on the biggest stage, with Jan Oblak and Samir Handanović leaving an indelible mark despite falling short of victory in the Champions League final on numerous occasions.
This time, the outstanding achievement of our goalkeepers was shared by the online portal Transfermarkt, which compiled a ranking of goalkeepers who have kept their nets untouched the most in the past ten years in the top five leagues. Topping the list is the captain of the Slovenian national team, Jan Oblak, who, in the last decade, managed to keep his net intact over 200 times. He achieved this feat in 431 appearances, and the Škofja Loka native averaged nearly not conceding a goal in almost every other game he played.
