Jordan Henderson has revealed how his Liverpool teammates inspired his iconic ‘little shuffle’ Champions League trophy lift a year ago today.
The Reds captain became the fifth man to hoist aloft Old Big Ears on the club’s behalf on June 1, 2019 after a 2-0 victory over Tottenham Hotspur in Madrid.
He marked the moment of history with a prolonged shuffle towards his teammates, increasing anticipation levels to their highest before finally raising the European Cup into the air as the squad celebrated around him.
Henderson’s unique approach to such a significant responsibility has since become his trademark as the midfielder repeated the trick when collecting the UEFA Super Cup and FIFA Club World Cup.
