In the duel against Liverpool in the grand final of the UEFA Champions League, the Real Madrid goalkeeper saved his team from several attacks by the Reds, who in the first minutes of the first half made a series of attacks on Madrid's goal. 

The goalkeeper has been a fundamental piece of Carlo Ancelotti's game plan this season in both Champions League and La Liga, as he has been a wall in the most complicated moments of the Merengue team, so he has undoubtedly been the figure of Madrid in this campaign.

But it is not the first time he has done so, as in both La Liga and the UEFA Champions League he has been important, as in the former he saved 93 shots on his goal, while in the latter competition, he managed to stop 50 shots on his goal.
