Geronimo Rulli - Page 3 - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Concedes two in loss Rulli conceded two goals and made five saves during Wednesday's 2-0 loss to Liverpool.

Impact Rulli almost kept out a deflected effort that opened the scoring but his defense was well-beaten on Sadio Mane's effort to decide the first leg. As he still made five saves, Rulli didn't shrink from the spotlight during one of the biggest matches in his club's history. This should help him out in the return leg next Tuesday, though first is Saturday's trip to Deportivo Alaves and it's unclear if he or Sergio Asenjo will start to give Rulli some rest.
