Liverpool midfielder Jordan Henderson has thanked Chelsea ace Mason Mount on Instagram, and his England international teammate has responded.
Henderson has thanked Mount for his delivery which the Liverpool star headed in against Ukraine in the Euro 2020 quarter-final tie last night.
In the 63rd minute, Chelsea midfielder Mount whipped in a corner.
Henderson, who had come on as a substitute on 57 minutes, headed it home.
It was the 31-year-old Liverpool star’s first goal for England and helped the Three Lions to a 4-0 win against Ukraine in Rome.
Henderson has thanked Mount on Instagram for his assist, and the Chelsea star has responded, as you can see below.
Henderson had injury concerns coming into the European Championship.
Leeds United’s Kalvin Phillips and Declan Rice of West Ham United have made themselves pretty much undroppable from the England midfield right now.
Henderson is a senior player in head coach Gareth Southgate’s squad, but the midfielder is unlikely to start against Denmark in the semi-finals.
However, Henderson – who has been on the books of Liverpool since the summer of 2011 when he joined from Sunderland for a transfer fee reported by The Guardian to be worth £20 million – is a very good option to have on the substitutes’ bench.
