Juventus' Wojciech Szczesny knew exactly where Milan’s Gonzalo Higuain would put his penalty – “last year, as second goalkeeper, I always trained with him”.
The Polish international saved Pipita’s spot kick last night, diving low his right to push it onto the post.
“I know him, because he was one of the penalty takers last year,” Szczesny told JTV.
“Last year, as second goalkeeper, I always trained with him on penalties and of course we’d studied them.

“Last year, as second goalkeeper, I always trained with him on penalties and of course we’d studied them.
“I chose to move first on his penalty, he usually hits them like that and I just had to hope he wouldn’t change, which he didn’t.
“So I’m happy to have saved the penalty.”
