Liverpool goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili was left in awe at the ‘crazy’ save that he pulled off in the closing minutes of his team’s 3-1 win over Tottenham Hotspur on Tuesday night.The visitors were pushing for an equaliser in the final stages of the Carabao Cup tie and must’ve thought they were about to draw level when Omar Marmoush surged into the penalty area and evaded the challenge of Alexis Mac Allister.The Egyptian’s shot took a wicked deflection and, somehow, the Reds netminder got a strong arm to the ball to punch it away from danger, showing incredibly quick reflexes before reacting to his heroic intervention with a celebratory fist pump and roar of delight.Mamardashvili reflects on ‘crazy’ save from MarmoushIt proved to be an important moment, coming just five minutes before Dominik Szoboszlai settled the tie with an equally spectacular goal at the other end of the pitch, and Mamardashvili was quite satisfield with his night’s work.He told liverpoolfc.com after the win: “[It was] a good game. I’m happy to have made the saves because I helped the team a little bit.
Yeah, happy.”On the stop from Marmoush, the Liverpool goalkeeper said: “This one, I saw [back] just now. It was a really important game, a really important victory, especially at Anfield with our fans.“I hadn’t had any opportunity to play this season, so I wanted to enjoy today and I did.

Some top saves from Giorgi last night 🧤⛔️ pic.twitter.com/P0LZg01Tw4 — Liverpool FC (@LFC) September 16, 2026After a testing first season at Anfield in which he kept just three clean sheets in 20 games and didn’t convince with his ball distribution, the Georgian may have felt a pressure to perform on his first appearance of this campaign.It wasn’t a perfect display from him, but the two big saves he pulled off in the opening and closing minutes more than justified his selection by Andoni Iraola.The 25-year-old will also have been aware of the potential threat to his position at Liverpool once Lucca Brughmans arrives from Genk next year, but he served a reminder last night of why the Reds were so eager to bring him in from Valencia.Hopefully he can step up in a similarly convincing fashion whenever he’s called upon this term.
