First airing of world's no 1 this season?

Felt really cathartic. Like a bit of a weight had been lifted off both him and the crowd.

That’s good to hear. Watching back on the highlights it felt like it was a cleansing experience.

He's no longer public enema No. 1.

Really was a superb penalty save. First glimmers of Emi being Emi we’ve seen in a while.

I'm sure the loud booing from the Holte End, when their player was waiting to take the penalty, helped Emi

Help him? He started it!

Did he now? Couldn't see that from row 34, but I'm not really surprised!

Crowd was quiet and subdued after the penalty award. Emi encourages crowd to make news with both arms - a big come on. Suddenly the noise was deafening and arms were waving a torch light was shining.

Would you say he’s a better shot stopper than Jimmy Rimmer?

Yeah, I've been  going since '67 and would add Bosnich to the mix, but Emi and Big Jimmy Rimmer are definitely top 2.

Was very aware of the noise - I was booing as loud as I could! - but wasn't aware that Emi started it
