The third-tier goalkeepers that became heroes vs Madrid and Barcelona

José Juan Figueiras (CD Alcoyano) and Ramón Juan Ramírez (UE Cornellà) became heroes after their Segunda División B (Spanish third tier) teams faced Real Madrid and FC Barcelona in the 20/21 Copa del Rey.

Two keepers have stood out in this year's Copa del Rey and it may surprise you to hear that it isn't Oblak, Ter Stegen, or Courtois...

José Juan’s saves were crucial as Alcoyano knocked out Real Madrid.

Ramón Juan made history, becoming the first keeper to save two penalties against Barca in the same game.
