Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson played 90 minutes for England as they romped to a record 6-1 win over Panama in the World Cup on Sunday, and Reds fans have taken to Twitter to rave about his assured display. 

The 28-year-old was deployed once again as England’s only holding midfielder against the Central American minnows, and once again put in a good performance as the Three Lions qualified for the knockout stages with one match to spare.

Henderson linked up England’s play really well throughout the match, just as he does for the Reds, and put in some important challenges in defence as well.

A hat-trick from Harry Kane, including two penalties and a fortuitous third, put England in charge, with John Stones grabbing two and Jesse Lingard scoring the pick of the bunch with a lovely 20-yard curler.

Henderson almost got on the scoresheet himself when the ball fell to him on the edge of the box, but the Reds ace could only fire his volley wide of the post.

Liverpool fans have now taken to Twitter to rave about Henderson’s display in a brilliant team performance, with many admitting their surprise at his quality for the Three Lions at the start of the tournament.
