Fiorentina have picked up from where they had left off as Serie A football resumed after the international game and this is also because former Manchester United goalkeeper David De Gea once again stopped their opponents from finding the net.
The 34-year-old deserves huge credit for helping his side emerge 2-0 winners at Como on Sunday, as he pulled off a fantastic triple save in the second half to deny Cesc Fabregasโs side, allowing the Viola to register yet another clean sheet.
De Geaโs fifth clean sheet helps Fiorentina near winning streak record
De Gea made his league debut for Fiorentina in mid-September, during his sideโs 3-2 defeat away to Atalanta โ however, he kept five Serie A clean sheets from that moment, more than any other goalkeeper has managed in the same period.

The Viola didnโt concede goals in four of their last six Serie A encounters and are currently on a seven-game winning streak, something that only happened once in their history, when they won eight consecutive league matches in 1960, as reported by Opta.
Coach Raffaele Palladino praised his goalkeeper after their victory at Como, saying heโs making โreaction saves as if heโs aged 20โ.
