'Hopefully Sunday will be better': Kelleher looks back at his 2022 Carabao Cup heroics before another Chelsea clash

In 2022, Liverpool and Chelsea already faced each other in the Carabao Cup final, and Caoimhin Kelleher was arguably the star of the night.

The Irish goalkeeper kept a clean sheet before scoring the decisive penalty in the shootout.

Asked if that was the best moment of his career so far, Kelleher said: "Probably! Hopefully Sunday will be better. But obviously that was a really nice moment.

"Obviously I've got good memories of that final. It was a really nice moment for myself and the team. It'll be a good experience to draw from and hopefully we can get a good result there again.

"I've got a lot of family coming across from Ireland and friends and stuff. There's a whole crew coming over, so it'll be nice for them.

"They have obviously helped me a lot during my career, so it's a nice thing for them to go over to Wembley and to experience a final. It'll be a nice moment. They were there last time, so hopefully I can give them more of the same this time."

Kelleher was going to start the final even if Alisson was fit. Now, Jurgen Klopp does not have a choice but to put him in the lineup.
