Manchester City goalkeeper Ederson showed his readiness if called into action to take a penalty as the Brazilian scored a range of spot-kicks while preparing for the upcoming Champions League final against Chelsea.
Ederson could be seen scoring a variety of penalties as he smashes it to all 4 corners of the net without any fuss, takes a panenka and finesses some during a training session at Estadio do Dragao.
According to TNT Sports journalist Arthur Quezada, Ederson took 11 penalties in training as he scored 10 and missed one.
With the Europa League final between Manchester United and Villarreal being decided on penalties, that too by goalkeepers, there is a lot of focus on the shot-stoppers ahead of the biggest match of the season in European football.
