Liverpool supporters have lavished praise on Caoimhin Kelleher following his great display in his team’s recent 5-1 UEFA Europa League last-16 first leg win at Sparta Prague.Earlier this Thursday (March 7), the Reds defeated the Czech First League leaders ahead of the return leg at Anfield next week.
Alexis Mac Allister opened the scoring with a penalty while Darwin Nunez scored a first half brace. Luis Diaz and Dominik Szoboszlai both bagged a goal each after Conor Bradley’s unfortunate 46th-minute own goal.
Kelleher, who has been deputizing for the injured Alisson Becker for the past three weeks, produced an assuring outing at the epet Arena. The 25-year-old registered six saves and completed 28 of 42 passes.
Lauding the Irishman’s performance, a Liverpool fan wrote on X:
“Also, Kelleher once again proving his worth again and again, made major saves in first 45.”
