Kris Ajer believes Fraser Forster 's performance in the Betfred Cup final is the best he's ever seen from a goalkeeper.

The Celtic 'keeper was on top form against Rangers at Hampden, making a stunning save from a Ryan Jack piledriver in the first half.

Jeremie Frimpong gave away a penalty and was sent off with around half an hour to play but Forster denied Morelos from the spot.

The Hoops went on to win the League Cup for the fourth season in a row, and the man who plays in front of Forster ever week was amazed by his showing.

Ajer told Sky Sports News: "It's probably the best performance I've ever seen from a goalkeeper.

"He's unstoppable - I love him, man.

"He saved me, so I love him!"
