Strakosha amazes Greece! He saves 3 penalties and 17 games without conceding a

Thomas Strakosha is being confirmed as one of AEK's most important players this season. The 30-year-old Albanian goalkeeper has been a regular starter since the start of the championship, accumulating around 3,000 minutes in all competitions, including championship and European matches.

One of the most prominent elements of his season has been his penalty saves. Strakosha has saved three penalty kicks on the road, first against Kifisia in Peristeri, then in the derby with Panathinaikos and most recently against PAOK. These saves have had a direct impact on the team's results, contributing to two wins and a draw.

Beyond penalties, Strakosha has recorded 17 clean sheets in 33 appearances this season. Of these, 12 have come in the league and five in the European arena, specifically in the Conference League. He has also been decisive in other important challenges, including the match in Brussels against Anderlecht, where his interventions helped the team secure a positive result, as well as in the transfer to Turkey against Samsunspor. Another special moment was the intervention in the last minutes against Asteras Tripolis, which preserved the minimal victory for his team.

According to statistical data, the average goals he has conceded is 0.65 per match, while the expected goals against indicator is 0.98. This shows that the goalkeeper has performed above statistical expectations.

On average, he faces 3.08 shots on goal per game and makes 2.42 saves, with a significant percentage of tackles requiring quick reactions. He is also accurate with the ball at his feet, with 67 percent accuracy in long passes.

Personal stability and a positive climate in the team are factors that the player himself has mentioned as part of his current form. Up until this stage of the season, Strakosha remains a reference point in goal for AEK, providing security and continuity in appearances both in Greece and in Europe.
