• Spanish goalkeeper saves Tammy Abraham kick in shootout
• ‘He put in an incredible performance,’ says Klopp
Jürgen Klopp praised the contribution of Adrián, Liverpool’s new goalkeeper, after watching his team beat Chelsea in a penalty shootout to win the European Super Cup.
The Spaniard, deputising for the injured Alisson, was signed only last week and made the decisive save to stop Tammy Abraham’s kick from 12 yards, helping Liverpool win 5-4 on penalties. The final had finished 2-2 after extra time and Klopp admitted being pleasantly surprised by Adrián’s performance.
