CAOIMHIN KELLEHER showed just how much he was prepared to put his body on the line against Atalanta last night.

The keeper pulled off a stunning save in the first half… using his FACE.

The chance came after the ball dropped to Mario Pasalic just outside the six-yard box.

Kelleher, 25, did brilliantly to scramble towards the midfielder and stop the shot with his visage.

The ball left a visible bruise afterwards under Kelleher’s eye.

Fan on X were quick to react to the brilliant improvisation from Kelleher.

One fan wrote: “What a save.”

Another said: “That’s a good stop.”

But some fans disagreed with the idea that the save was good.

One fan wrote: “Literally hits him on the head. Not a save, Jesus.”

A fourth fan said: “What a stop it hit his face?”

Despite Kelleher’s brave keeping in the first-half, it was a night to forget for Liverpool.

West Ham reject Gianluca Scamacca scored a brace and Mario Pasalic made up for the Kelleher save as they made it 3-0 in the first-leg of the quarter-final.

The loss is a massive dent in Jurgen Klopp’s hopes of winning a treble to sign off as Liverpool manager this season.
