I've only just realised how MASSIVELY overrated that Banks save from Pele was

If you watch it, the ball bounces up from the ground and arrives on the goal line at a very comfortable height for him to claw it away.

It only caught the attention because on first glance it looked like he miraculously scooped it up from the ground and over the bar, but he could just as well have palmed it to the side which would have been equally effective but not as eye-catching.

It would actually have been a massive clanger had he let it in.

I think he said himself that the bounce put the ball at a reachable height.

Surely the remarkable thing about it is the way he was able to scoop it up and away and rather than just parry it?

Was that the one he scooped once it had actually gone past him in the cup semi?

That was my fave I can remember.
