From the source

Giorgi Mamardashvili was the hero for Liverpool on Wednesday as he helped the Reds knock Chelsea out of the Carabao Cup on penalties. The Georgian had to save Emanuel Emegha’s spot-kick after Kostas Tsimikas and Ryan Gravenberch failed to convert, leaving Liverpool on the brink of an exit.

Thankfully, he guessed right and kept the Reds in the game. Mamardashvili also came close to saving one or two more penalties, going especially close to stopping Morgan Rogers’ low effort.

According to the back-up goalkeeper, though, he had to rely on his own instincts rather than the data accumulated by Liverpool’s analysts, admitting that the staff had been wrong about which way every Chelsea taker would shoot.
