Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson was full of praise for Chelsea shot-stopper Edouard Mendy for his efforts in the penalty shootout moments after the Reds lifted the FA Cup.
Virgil van Dijk and Andrew Robertson were also substituted in the FA Cup final, although the latter only appeared to be suffering from cramp as the game entered extra time.
The Reds lifted the trophy after prevailing 6-5 on penalties, with Alisson saving a penalty from Mason Mount to gift team-mate Kostas Tsimikas the opportunity to score the winner – and he duly obliged.
