Save metrics ranked vs 16 keepers in the same major-tournament shot data (StatsBomb). Higher = better. Goals prevented (proxy) = pre-shot xG of on-target shots faced minus goals conceded. StatsBomb open data carries no post-shot xG, so this is an approximation — read as a relative ranking, not a literal goals-saved total. Penalties and shootouts are excluded. This keeper is below our sample bar, so their rates rest on a small number of shots — read the percentiles as indicative.
