Southampton manager Claude Puel singled out Fraser Forster for praise, hailing the goalkeeper's influence in the 0-0 draw against Liverpool.
High-flying Liverpool were thwarted by hosts Southampton, who earned a point in Saturday's Premier League clash at St Mary's.
Speaking afterwards, Puel said: "Fraser made a fantastic save in the first half and this is very important for the team.
"It's important for us against a good team, who had some chances, to have a good goalkeeper, and Fraser works very well, with a fantastic save, and keeps his goal without possibilities.
"But all the players around him also did very good work."
Southampton defender Virgil van Dijk added: "I think in a couple of moments we were lucky but we got the clean sheet and it’s a good point at home against a good team."
