Jordan Henderson has had his fair share of criticism over the years.
The midfielder has often suffered with unfair comparisons to his predecessor as Liverpool captain, Steven Gerrard.
But there was nothing but praise for the 28-year-old following his performance against Barcelona on Tuesday night.
Henderson looked like he may have to leave the field at one stage in the first half when he received extensive treatment for a knee injury.
But he bravely battled on and was outstanding as the Reds pulled off the seemingly impossible, overturning a 3-0 first leg deficit to reach the final of the Champions League.
The former Sunderland man was everywhere, closing down Barca players, breaking up attacks, and creating chances for his side too. It was a true captain’s performance.
He will now become only the fourth player to captain an English club in two Champions League finals, following in the footsteps of Emlyn Hughes, John McGovern and Gerrard.
