The young shot-stopper was told he had nothing to lose and was inspired to help his side to the next round of the cup by saving Dani Ceballos' penalty
Liverpool goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher says he was told to “try to be the hero” before pulling off the penalty save that won his side a place in the Carabao Cup quarter finals.
The 20-year-old made his second start of the season as Jurgen Klopp rotated heavily in a pulsating 5-5 draw against Arsenal at Anfield, denying Dani Ceballos in what proved a decisive moment in the penalty shootout that was sealed by Curtis Jones.
