Concedes late goal in win Oblak made zero saves and conceded one goal during Sunday's 4-1 win over Cadiz.

Impact Oblak didn't have any work coming his way until the 86th minute, when he was caught by surprise when Choco Lozano's cross was slightly deflected by a defender and the ball ended up going into the far post. The goalkeeper's reaction could've been much better though and his poor calculation cost him which would've been a second straight La Liga clean sheet.

Impact Oblak had plenty to do, but let his team down when it counted the most. Late in stoppage time with a two goal lead the win seemed certain. That is until Hugo Duro beat Oblak twice inside five minutes to salvage the point, and sink Oblak's fantasy day. Oblak is a poor fantasy option behind a stingy defense that doesn't give him must shot volume to face.

Impact Oblak has conceded five goals over his last two starts between the league and UCL, which isn't a favorable record for someone who usually ends his seasons with clean sheets in over half of his games.

Impact Oblak has been extremely reliable for Atletico Madrid and this season hasn't been any different, as he has given up one or fewer goals in four of his five appearances in all competitions. Barring any sort of injury, he should remain between the posts for Atletico throughout the remainder of the group stage.

Conceded one goal in win Oblak conceded one goal and made two saves during Sunday's 2-1 win over Espanyol.

Impact Oblak has conceded goals in three of his first four games to begin the season but none of those ended in defeat. One can only expect a defense with the pedigree of Oblak and his teammates to start recording shutouts with consistency, though their past efforts were truly extraordinary and he may be coming back to Earth. Up next is Wednesday's UCL match against Porto, and Oblak kept just two clean sheets in eight European matches last season.
