Pep Lijnders praises 'outstanding' Caoimhin Kelleher as Cork keeper set for extended Liverpool run
Liverpool's meeting Chelsea in the Carabao Cup final on Sunday has brought the memories of the last time they met at this stage of the competition rushing back.
That's because it was only two years ago when Jurgen Klopp's side defeated the Blues, who were then managed by Thomas Tuchel, in an epic penalty shoot-out at Wembley.
Cork's Caoimhin Kelleher was the hero for the Reds on that day as his superb saves helped him keep a clean sheet during normal time and extra time before he slotted home what ultimately proved to be the winning spot kick as his opposing number one - Kepa Arrizabalaga - soon blazed over.
Kelleher will again be in goal when the two clubs go head-to-head in London this weekend and in the days leading up to the showpiece occasion, he has been reflecting on that memorable outing in February 2022.
