Kelleher put in a man-of-the-match performance as the Republic of Ireland beat Finland 1-0 on Thursday evening
Liverpool goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher made a crucial intervention for the Republic of Ireland, saving a penalty in the 77th minute to help his country to a 1-0 win over Finland on Thursday night.
The 25-year-old saved Joel Pohjanpalo's penalty and kept out Robin Lod's follow-up as Evan Ferguson's goal was enough in the Nations League win."Before he stepped up I just looked at the run-up and kind of went on instinct and thankfully I went the right way. "Thankfully we scored a great goal and then I think we just defended. Other than the penalty there weren't many chances, so there's positives to take from it."
Caoimhin Kelleher, who is often regarded as the best back-up keeper in the world has only conceded five goals in his eight games for Slot's Reds this season as they sit at the summit of both the Premier League and Champions League tables.
