Photo selection is a learned skill, sure, but this is just silly.
They could have picked a normal photo of Ochoa standing around, or a photo of him saving a shot (his penalty save against Portugal in the Confederations Cup third-place match? I don't know, I'm just spitballing) or a photo of his wedding this summer. Literally any other photo.
Fortunately, Standard Liege's official account had its ducks in a row:

Ochoa is still an elite shot-stopper. Standard Liege are getting a good one.
