In the just-concluded English League Final, Liverpool's 23-year-old goalkeeper Kyle Heh pushed Alisson to start, and in addition to a number of wonderful saves in the front line, he also scored Liverpool's last key goal, becoming the key to the team's victory. Before this game, Kloppli's tactic of arranging Kelleher's starting lineup was also at risk.
In this game, in addition to Liverpool facing the sudden injury of Thiago before the game, there is also an important choice is the choice of the main goalkeeper. At the moment of the final battle of this cup, when Alisson had recovered from injury and urgently needed a game to find his form, Klopp still had no hesitation in arranging for the youngster Kelleher to start. Liverpool boss Klopp said it would be immoral not to give Kelleher a start and not allow him to do his heroic job in the League Cup.
It was Kelleher's bravery in the quarter-finals that allowed them to pass another unbearable match, when his heroic performance led them to victory over Leicester City in a penalty shootout. Klopp also chose to trust and support young players through his big heart, and in Klopp's way of governing the army, there is a principle that the domestic cup arranges young players to play in training. If there was nothing wrong with the previous insistence, Klopp's insistence on his principles in the final moments was exactly what was expected of young players.
Kelleher also proved the manager's choice through his own performances, and he grew into a giant on this wonderful wembley night. He kept his side with zero goals with some fantastic saves, starting with Mount and ending with a shot from Lukaku, although Chelsea at one point thought they had won. Even after that, Kelleher showed incredible calm and maturity, even though he was just a 23-year-old with just 17 senior appearances, a substitute who had to sit on the bench and look up to Alisson. It was Klopp's persistence that made Kelleher grow, Klopp said it would be an immoral thing not to let Kelleher start, and now it seems that both Klopp and Kelleher have done their right things and choices.
