Video: Pep Guardiola is at a loss for words following Ederson's 'crazy' performance.

Nerves were frayed and fingernails were bitten during the enthralling Manchester City-Liverpool match over the weekend, but few people remained as composed as City goalkeeper Ederson.

In a high-octane encounter played at a breakneck tempo, neither team was able to make a substantial impact on the title race, with the distance between the two remaining at a single point.

Ederson's determination to playing the ball out from the back was one moment that left spectators speechless. Ederson feinted a pass before playing the ball across the backline – from his own goal line – with Liverpool attacker Diogo Jota bearing down on him.

When asked about the incident on SkySports, Ederson's manager, Pep Guardiola, struggled to explain how the Brazilian maintains such a level of composure in goal, referring to him as "crazy."

With a picture of the incident with the ball on the line after the match, Ederson bolstered his image as an adrenaline junkie even more. In the Champions League, he will be in action against Atletico Madrid on Wednesday as Manchester City look to reach the semi-finals for the second year in a row.
