A fourth fan said: “What a stop 😂 it hit his face?”
Despite Kelleher’s brave keeping in the first-half, it was a night to forget for Liverpool.
West Ham reject Gianluca Scamacca scored a brace and Mario Pasalic made up for the Kelleher save as they made it 3-0 in the first-leg of the quarter-final.
The loss is a massive dent in Jurgen Klopp’s hopes of winning a treble to sign off as Liverpool manager this season.
