Jaume's first penalty save

The VCF goalkeeper made his first spot kick save in official action against Málaga CF -coached by Javi Gracia

Jaume Domènech will have Javi Gracia as coach in the 2020/21 season, and his new boss has seen him in action on several occasions already. When coaching Malaga in LaLiga in 2015, his side came up against a rock-solid Valencia CF performance, in which the home team won 3-0 at Mestalla and Jaume saved a penalty.

In the 39th minute, Duda was given the opportunity to pull a goal back for Malaga from the spot. The Portuguese -a set piece specialist- stepped back and prepared his shot. When he struck the ball, Jaume guessed the right way and made the save, bringing fans at Mestalla to their feet.

It was his first penalty stop in LaLiga competition, following on from a save made against Alianza de Lima in a 2014 friendly.

Javi Gracia will be hoping for more of the same from the goalkeeper, who got a run of several games between the sticks towards the end of the 2019/20 campaign and is one of the club's captains.
