Son Heung-min one-on-one shot stop not Ortega

EPL save of the year is Kaminsky's 'double save'

The EPL's best save of the season wasn't made by Spertan Ortega (Man City), who denied Heung-min Son to help Man City win the title.

The English Premier League (EPL) announced the winners of the 2023-2024 season on its official channels on Saturday.

Luton Town's Tomasz Kaminski was the winner of the Save of the Year award. The winners were determined by a panel and fan vote.

Kaminski was honored for his incredible saves and reflexes against Crystal Palace last November, when he saved two shots in quick succession from Eberezi Eze and Jeffrey Schlupp.

Kaminski's crucial saves helped Luton to a 2-1 victory over Palace and their first EPL home win in history.

Ortega, the "Man City backup" who sealed a 2-0 victory at Tottenham on Sept. 15 with a leg save in the 41st minute when he was one-on-one with Spurs ace Son Heung-min after leading 1-0, was not initially nominated.

Alisson (Liverpool), Robert Sanchez (Chelsea), Alfonse Areola (West Ham), Wes Foderingham (Sheffield United), Jordan Pickford (Everton), Mark Flecken (Brentford), Mats Sels (Nottingham Forest) and Andre Onana (Man United) were among the other nominees.

Ortega was instead one of six nominees in the Game-changer category. Ortega could be a surprise winner, as City broke the goalless draw jinx against Tottenham and won an unprecedented fourth consecutive league game thanks to his saves. Ortega is the only goalkeeper among the six nominees.

Meanwhile, Man United's Alejandro Garnacho was named Goal of the Year for his bicycle kick against Everton.
