Caoimhín Kelleher keeps a clean sheet on his Premier League debut
Cork's Caoimhín Kelleher kept a clean sheet for Liverpool for the second time in less than a week last night.
The former Ringmahon Rangers goalkeeper made his Premier League debut at Anfield, deputising for the injured Allison in the 4-0 win over Wolves.
Last night's clean sheet comes just days after the Ireland under 21 international made his Champions League debut in the 1-0 win over Ajax.
Kelleher told LiverpoolFC.com that he's delighted to be able to help the team out.
“I’m just trying to be there for the team to help them out in those moments and thankfully again I was able to make those saves and get the clean sheet.
“To get the clean sheet, for me and the back four, is the most important thing for us. We’ve done our job then.
“From the first minute we really were on fire tonight and we played really well. We scored four goals [and] could maybe have had a few more as well. It was a great all-round team performance.”
Superb again, Caoimhin 🤩 pic.twitter.com/wWvbVr6NZE
