Which Premier League player was the worst ranked in GW 2 of the Champions League?
There were multiple contenders for the title of the worst ranked player in gameweek 2 of the Champions League group stages this week. Dinamo Zagreb were thumped 5-0 by Bayern Munich, whereas CSKA Moscow put three past PSV Eindhoven’s defence. However, no player could match the feats of Arsenal goalkeeper David Ospina, who garnered a terrible WhoScored rating of 4.44.
The Colombia international’s inclusion for Arsenal’s must win Champions League encounter with Olympiacos raised eyebrows and it was a decision that would backfire massively on Arsene Wenger as they slipped to a 3-2 defeat at the hands of the Greek champions.
Ospina, 27, emerged as the No.1 goalkeeper at Arsenal at the backend of last season, but he isn’t likely to take between the sticks any time soon after costing his team the points, and potentially their chances of progressing to the knockout stages of Europe’s elite competition.
The former Nice shot stopper attempts to collect a routine corner kick ended in him dropping the ball into his own net to put Olympiacos back in the lead prior to half-time.
