Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp praised Irish goalkeeper Caoimhín Kelleher for his outstanding performance in the team's 4-1 win against Brentford. Kelleher, who stood in for the injured Alisson, made crucial saves throughout the match, including a stunning stop at point-blank range. With Alisson's injury uncertain, Kelleher is expected to start in the upcoming league game and the Carabao Cup final.
Jurgen Klopp heaped praise on Irish goalkeeper Caoimhín Kelleher , who again stood in for Alisson for Liverpool ’s 4-1 win away to Brentford . Kelleher impressed in last week’s win against Burnley, which Alisson missed through illness.
Liverpool’s first-choice ‘keeper then suffered a hamstring in training yesterday, meaning Kelleher stepped in to make a fourth Premier League appearance of the season, and a 14th in all competitions – higher than his total across both of his previous two seasons combined. He excelled at what little he had to do in a comfortable win, making a fine second-half save from which Ivan Toney was in a good position to convert the rebound. Kelleher then made a stunning save from Toney at point-blank range late in the game. With the extent of Alisson’s injury yet to be confirmed, Kelleher is likely to play in Wednesday’s league game with Luton, and is guaranteed to start next Sunday’s Carabao Cup final against Chelsea. “He was outstanding”, said Klop
