Jordan Pickford denied Erling Haaland from the spot.
Jordan Pickford's water bottle has emerged amid his stunning penalty save against Erling Haaland during Manchester City vs. Everton.
Haaland had the chance to put Man City back in the lead when his side were awarded a penalty shortly after the interval.
Vitaly Mykolenko fouled Savinho inside the box, with match referee Simon Hooper pointing to the spot.
Haaland placed the ball on the spot but fluffed his lines from 12 yards.
Pickford pulled off a great save, diving to his right to deny the Norwegian forward.
After his penalty save, his water bottle emerged, which contained intel on Man City's penalty takers.

An image showed Pickford had intel on Phil Foden, Jeremy Doku, Jack Grealish and Mateo Kovacic written on his water bottle.
Of course, Haaland took the penalty, with the England international preventing him from scoring.
It's not the first time the goalkeeper has had intel written on his water bottle.
At Euro 2024, Pickford had information on every Switzerland penalty taker.
A close-up shot of his water bottle had instructions where to dive for each Swiss player.
And it had 'dive left' for Manuel Akanji, which he did to save the penalty.
