Dugout, Best Saves: Puggioni makes crucial penalty stop in Samp v Empoli

The dream of any young Sampdoria fan who plays in goal is to save a penalty in front of the South Stand. That’s exactly what Christian Puggioni, Blucerchiati through and through, did in the 2016/17 season. He denied Levan Mchedlidze’s effort from the spot – a crucial intervention that earned his team a point against Empoli. Ahead of Sampdoria’s clash with those same opponents, Dugout has picked the stop out in its collection of Best Saves.
