Liverpool goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher has spoken highly of the Anfield atmosphere during the match against Arsenal on Wednesday evening to the club’s official website.

Kelleher was between the posts for Liverpool in their EFL Cup tie against Premier League rivals Arsenal at Anfield.

The 20-year-old had a good game overall and also made the only save during the penalty shootout, which Jurgen Klopp’s side won.

It was the Republic of Ireland Under-21 international’s only second senior appearance for the Reds, and the youngster was impressed with the atmosphere at Anfield.

Kelleher told Liverpool’s official website: “It was unbelievable tonight. Once you hear [the fans] singing You’ll Never Walk Alone and you’re actually playing, it’s quite surreal. It’s just an unreal feeling. It’s class.”

Future Liverpool first-team regular?

Alisson is the first-choice goalkeeper at Liverpool, and the Brazil international is going to stay so for a number of years.

Kelleher is only 20 years of age, and it could be a fair few years before he becomes a regular in the first team at the Reds.

However, there is no doubt that the youngster has what it takes to make it big at Liverpool in the long run.
