Banks Saves!
England's goalie Gordon Banks hits the ground after making one of the most famous saves in soccer history during a 1970 World Cup match in Mexico. Brazilian soccer legend Pele had headed the ball toward the unguarded far post and was already turning to celebrate when Banks made a breathtaking, one-handed, fingertip save. This gallery is all about saves -- and the cat-like reflexes of the players who make them.
