    Brilliant goalkeeping at both ends.

    Firstly, Keylor Navas dives to his right to pounce on Marouane Fellaini's towering header.

    On the counter, Marcos Asensio strikes towards the target from the centre of goal, but a stunning David de Gea stop keeps the ball out of the net.

    From the corner, Sergio Ramos heads wide, when he should have buried it.
