Five saves in draw
Safonov registered five saves and allowed one goal in Wednesday's 1-1 draw versus Bayern Munich.
Analysis: Safonov played a decisive role in Wednesday's 1-1 draw at the Allianz Arena, making five saves over 90 minutes to keep his side ahead on aggregate, including a crucial low stop to deny Jamal Musiala just before halftime. The Russian goalkeeper was beaten only in stoppage time by Harry Kane's emphatic finish from Alphonso Davies' assist, a goal that came too late to prevent his side from reaching the Budapest final. Safonov has made 32 saves, conceded 12 goals and kept 4 clean sheets in 12 Champions League appearances this season. He will face Arsenal in the Champions League final on May 30, having been a consistent and reliable presence throughout the knockout rounds.
One save in win
Safonov made one save and allowed zero goals in Saturday's 3-0 victory against Angers.
Analysis: Safonov played the full 90 minutes in Saturday's 3-0 win over Angers, facing very limited goalkeeping work throughout but making his one meaningful contribution count when he came to claim a powerful cross in the second half to deny the hosts any hope of a consolation. Safonov has now kept five consecutive clean sheets in away fixtures across all competitions and will look to carry that momentum into Tuesday's Champions League first leg against Bayern Munich.
