Top 5 European teams with the most clean sheets

The concept of keeping a clean sheet not only reflects the goalkeeper's skill but also has a profound impact on the team's dynamics and performance.


Atlético de Madrid Femenino

The red-and-white club has played 25 matches so far in the league championship, of which they have kept a clean sheet in 14 occasions. This has been thanks to the interventions of Lola Gallardo and Larqué, the second goalkeeper of Atlético de Madrid Femenino


Lola Gallardo has undoubtedly been one of the main reasons why Atlético de Madrid Femenino has managed to keep a clean sheet 14 times, with Gallardo herself saving the goal on 12 occasions. Patricia Larqué, with only two appearances in the Liga F, achieved two goalless draws—one in match 8 against Esnayol and another in match 17 against Granada CF Femenino.


Lola Gallardo's unwavering presence between the posts has repeatedly proven to be one of the best goalkeepers in Liga F. Her ability to read the game, quick reactions to powerful shots, and impressive saves have been vital for the team. However, despite the club's irregularity, Lola Gallardo is a player who conveys confidence to her defense and often becomes a leader within the locker room.


The red-and-white club has kept a clean sheet 14 times, demonstrating a strong commitment to defensive work, where Lola Gallardo plays a crucial role. Although Atlético de Madrid Femenino is not the league leader, Lola Gallardo's work in the squad is essential. The team has played 25 league matches, achieving 14 clean sheets thanks to the interventions of Lola Gallardo and Larqué, the second goalkeeper.


Manchester United Femenino


Throughout the season, Manchester United Femenino has kept a clean sheet in 12 of their 18 Women's Super League matches. Phallon Tullis-Joyce is the key player behind this achievement for the English club. Moreover, the American goalkeeper has only conceded 9 goals throughout the league campaign.


Although the English club is not at the top of the table, despite conceding few goals, Phallon Tullis-Joyce is an undisputed starter in Marc Skinner's lineup. Since joining Manchester United, Phallon Tullis-Joyce has proven to be a top-level goalkeeper. Her ability to anticipate shots, quick reactions, and crucial saves have been fundamental in numerous victories for her team.


Manchester United WFC is currently third in the standings with 42 points, the same as second-placed Arsenal Femenino. Chelsea Femenino leads with 48 points, although they have conceded more goals—13 in total.


Olympique de Lyon Femenino


Olympique de Lyon Femenino has kept a clean sheet in 15 of the 20 matches played so far in the French Division 1 Féminine during the 2024/2025 season. Thirteen of these 15 clean sheets were thanks to the outstanding interventions of Claudia Christiane Endler Mutinelli, along with two occasions where Laura Benkarth also managed to keep a clean sheet.


One of Endler's most notable traits is her quick reaction ability. She has impressive reflexes that allow her to make spectacular saves, even in very close-range plays. She is one of those goalkeepers who seem to fly from one post to the other in milliseconds, stopping shots that seemed impossible. Remarkably, during this season in the French women's league called Ligue 1 Arkema, Olympique Lyon Femenino has only conceded 5 goals. This astonishing fact places the club at the top of the table with 55 points and as the favorite to win the league title.


Inter de Milán Femenino


FC Internazionale Milano continues to establish itself as an emerging force in women's football, with ambitions to compete at the highest level both nationally and internationally. The Italian club has kept a clean sheet in 9 of the 23 matches played, placing the club second in the standings with 42 points. Cecilia Rán Rúnarsdóttir has led this statistic. She has achieved 8 clean sheets, along with the intervention of goalkeeper Rachele Baldi, who in match 6 secured a victory against Como Femminile with a 1-0 score.


Undoubtedly, goalkeeper Cecilia Rán Rúnarsdóttir has proven to be a talented player with international experience, establishing herself as one of the promising talents in women's football. At only 21 years old, she is a starting player for FC Internazionale Milano.


Inter de Milán Femenino continues to solidify itself as an emerging force in women's football, with aspirations to compete at the highest level both nationally and internationally.


Bayern de Múnich Femenino


The goalkeepers of Bayern Munich Femenino are highly skilled players with exceptional abilities both between the posts and in playing with their feet. Throughout the season, the German team has managed to keep a clean sheet in 11 of the 19 matches played so far in the Frauen-Bundesliga, thanks to the interventions of their two goalkeepers, Maria Grohs and Ena Mahmutovic. Maria Grohs has kept the goal clean in 4 matches, while Ena Mahmutovic has done so in 7 matches, maintaining a clean sheet for the full 90 minutes each time.


Bayern Munich aims to be at the top of European women's football. This involves having a strong internal competition in every position, including goalkeeper. Leading the standings and with only one defeat, Bayern Munich Femenino has accumulated 47 points and is the favorite to win the league trophy called Frauen Bundesliga.


Therefore, Olympique Lyon Femenino is the team with the fewest goals conceded and also the club that has kept a clean sheet the most times.
