Ghanaian goalkeeper Lawrence Ati-Zigi was the hero of St Gallen when he saved a crucial penalty in a 2-2 draw with FC Servette in the Swiss Super League on Wednesday.
Ati-Zigi has been a key cog for the green and white boys since he joined from Sochaux last year.
The 24-year-old again proved his importance to the team during the 2-2 draw with Servette FC in the top flight at Stade de Genève on Wednesday night.
Basil Stillheart scored St Gallen’s first goal in the 7th minute, but the lead didn’t last as Servette drew through France-born Ghanaian forward Grejohn Kyei in the 20th minute.
The 25-year-old had a great opportunity to put Servette FC ahead after referee Urs Schnyder awarded him a penalty.
Ati-Zigi emphatically parried Kyei’s powerful shot. The Ghanaian stopper instinctively dived to his right to make a crucial save and kept by his side in the game.
Jeremy Guillemenot restored the away lead three minutes after returning from recess.
However, St Gallen was unable to watch the game as the hosts rallied to steal a point thanks to an own goal by Betim Fazliji in the 60th minute.
His performance secured a point for St Gallen in the game.
