The Burgos goalkeeper, who ended up conceding a goal against Tenerife, surpassed the record kept by the then Atlético de Madrid goalkeeper since the 90-91 season

This Saturday has been a historic day in Spanish football. José Antonio Caro, Burgos goalkeeper, has written a new page in the national football records. In the match that pitted his team against Tenerife, the player from Huelva managed to beat the unbeaten record held by Abel Resino, then at Atlético de Madrid, since the 90-91 season when he managed to leave his goal empty for 1,275 consecutive minutes .

The goalkeeper of La Palma del Condado could not add another game without conceding after Elady Zorrilla scored the winning goal chicharrero in the final stretch of the game. In this way, the goalkeeper of the Burgos team leaves his record in 1,293 minutes, putting an end to a record that has endured for more than thirty years.

This is not the first mark broken by José Antonio Caro, who a month ago became the goalkeeper with the most minutes unbeaten at the start of the local championship after finishing with a clean sheet against Alavés on matchday nine of the LaLiga SmartBank . The man from Huelva then surpassed the record held by the Chilean Claudio Bravo, who had managed to go 756 minutes without receiving so much in his first year in the Barcelona ranks.

This record stood at 874 minutes after Caro was sent off in the 28th minute against Mirandés in a match in which Burgos, already with Dani Barrio in goal, conceded their first goal of the season. Marcos Paulo’s goal in stoppage time ended the unbeaten run of one of the revelation teams in the silver category, but not that of the goalkeeper from Huelva.
