Armani’s Penalty Record Across Clubs and Country

The River Plate and Argentina national team goalkeeper often goes unnoticed when penalties are matched against him from the spot, a moment that can swing the outcome of major competitions. In tournaments like the Copa Libertadores, the Copa Argentina, or the Copa América, spot kicks carry tremendous weight, and Armani has shown a mixed record that invites closer look. Across his career, his effectiveness at stopping penalties has varied, with notable performances in domestic clubs and national duty, but less eye-catching numbers when measured strictly within River Plate and the Argentina team context. Excluding shootouts, the goalkeeper’s numbers tell a nuanced story about his performance in regular time across different stages of his career.
