Goalkeeper Tzolakis sets Premier League record for saves in match against Arsenal

On November 9, 2026, Hull City goalkeeper Konstantinos Tzolakis delivered a record-breaking performance during a match against Arsenal in London. Despite his team suffering a 1-0 defeat to the reigning champions, Tzolakis stood out by recording nine saves, the highest single-game total for any goalkeeper in the English Premier League during the current 2026-2027 season.

This performance places Tzolakis fourth in the European rankings for the most saves in a single match this season. He follows Maarten Vandevoordt of RB Leipzig with 11 saves, as well as Peter Gulacsi (Villarreal) and Loris Karius (Schalke), who have each recorded 10 saves in a single game. This accomplishment marks a significant milestone in the career of the Greek international, who has recently begun his tenure in the Premier League. The statistics reflect both his individual skill level and his growing impact on the league's defensive rankings.
