Brazilian goalkeeper preserves victory with last-gasp heroics against Napoli
LIVERPOOL - Goalkeeper Alisson Becker was called a "lifesaver" by Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp for a last-gasp save that preserved a 1-0 win over Napoli at Anfield on Tuesday, sending the Reds to the last 16 of the Champions League.
Mo Salah's stunning solo effort put the host in front 11 minutes before halftime, but Liverpool was nearly made to pay for its profligacy in botching a series of second-half chances.
