'Beyond outrageous!' - Lionesses stopper Mary Earps joins fans in hailing Emi Martinez's 'save of the season' after Aston Villa goalkeeper's stunning stop against Nottingham Forest

Premier League

Aston Villa

Manchester City

Brentford

Nottingham Forest

<p>Villa goalkeeper Martinez was in the spotlight again after pulling out a phenomenal stop in Villa's 2-1 defeat to Forest on Saturday. The Argentina international used his lightning-quick reflexes to get a hand on Nicolas Dominguez's header and stop it from going over the line. Those inside the City Ground could not believe what they were seeing and fans on social media were even more shocked by what they had just seen.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Naturally, @VillansOpinions was full of praise for Martinez, posting: "Emiliano Martinez is the greatest goalkeeper alive."</p><p>@ZachLowy followed a similar line, saying: "Emiliano Martínez is just extraordinary. Save of the season right there."</p><p>@joethomlinson opted to suggest it was one of the best saves ever, claiming: "That Emi Martinez save is one of the best in the history of the Premier League. INSANE."</p><p>And @NealGardner was quick to agree with him, adding: "Emi Martinez just made one of the saves of the season…"</p><p>Finally, @TomGarratt chose to compare the World Cup winner to David Seaman, saying: "What an unbelievable save from Martinez. Seaman esque 👏🏻."</p><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">WHAT A SAVE BY EMILIANO MARTINEZ! 🤯 <a href="https://t.co/E9ASoBwWpo">pic.twitter.com/E9ASoBwWpo</a></p>— Sky Sports Premier League (@SkySportsPL) <a href="https://twitter.com/SkySportsPL/status/1868006267848888738?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">December 14, 2024</a></blockquote>

WHAT THE FANS ARE SAYING

<p>Martinez's save grabbed the attention of fellow goalkeeper and Lioness Mary Earps. The 31-year-old took to Instagram, posting a video of the save and captioning it: "Beyond outrageous."</p>

WHAT EARPS SAID

<p>As much as Martinez would have enjoyed the limelight had his save earned Villa three points, it was not enough to get Unai Emery's men over the line. A late flurry from Forest prevented the Villans from moving above them in the standings and the result ensured Villa's rocky form in the top flight continued. </p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>The Villans have a rare midweek off but take on Champions League rivals Manchester City on Saturday. Emery and Co will fancy their chances against the champions but have only beaten them once in their last 17 meetings. </p>
