The Brazilian shot-stopper missed the 1-0 Champions League loss at Galatasaray last Tuesday (March 10) due to what was characterised as a minor muscle problem. ‌However, he made his comeback for the 1-1 Premier League stalemate at home to Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday. He then featured again on Wednesday as Liverpool overturned their first-leg loss to thrash the Turkish outfit 4-0 at Anfield and advance to the Champions League quarter-finals. The previous two complete Premier League campaigns have witnessed him sitting out 20 matches in total, with Caoimhin Kelleher filling in during those periods.
