If you have enjoyed a little mini-break on the moon this weekend, then you could be forgiven for not hearing about David de Gea’s latest heroics between the sticks for Manchester United.
The Spain international made an impressive 11 saves in the second half to keep just his fourth clean sheet in the league this season as Spurs peppered his goal.
While it has to be said that some of the shots were straight at the Manchester United number one, his performance certainly drew a big reaction on social media. Here is some of the best reactions on Twitter.
Closed! Manchester United left-back Luke Shaw was certainly grateful of heroics of the man behind him.

Watford and former Man Utd ‘keeper Ben Foster is a fully paid-up member of the David de Gea fan club
I see a lot of people saying all De Gea saves were straight at him, please factor in that the guy has some mad sense to know where to be at just the right time, you can’t teach that. Proper goally ????
