David de Gea frames boots worn in Manchester United win against Tottenham after a series of stunning saves with his feet

David de Gea was the hero for Manchester United in their win 1-0 win over Tottenham at Wembley and now has a permanent reminder of that performance.

A Marcus Rashford goal had given United the lead just before half-time, but it was the display of their goalkeeper which turned out to be the main talking point.

De Gea made a number of fine saves to keep Spurs at bay, several coming from his feet, as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer continued his unbeaten start as interim manager.

Man-of-the-match that day, De Gea has since had his boots framed and thanked legendary commentator Martin Tyler for the suggestion.

He wrote on Twitter: “Thanks for the framing idea, Martin! Was that the most saves made with feet in a game?”

The Spain international also got in touch with Tyler via Sky Sports social media to ask about the statistics from that game.

He asked: “I see I made four saves with my feet against Tottenham the week before last, but is that the most in a Premier League game this season?

Tyler responded: “Can I first say how absolutely delighted I am to hear from David and he has maybe now opened the door for other players to ask questions about their own careers!

“Now, as for the question itself, the four stops David made with his feet to help United beat Spurs 1-0 is indeed a record in the Premier League this season, beating the three that Bournemouth’s Asmir Begovic made in a 2-1 loss at Newcastle in November.”

In total, De Gea made 11 saves in that match and came close to equalling his Premier League record of most saves in a match which is 14.

Only Vito Mannone and Tim Krul share that record having also made the same number of stops.
