Jordan Henderson: Porto win was perfect ahead of City clash

Jordan Henderson considers Liverpool's 5-1 win over FC Porto to have been a perfect precursor to Sunday's meeting with Manchester City.

The Reds delivered an outstanding performance in the Champions League on Tuesday night, with braces by Mohamed Salah and Roberto Firmino, along with Sadio Mane’s goal, earning another comprehensive victory at Estadio do Dragao.

Attention within Jürgen Klopp’s squad now returns to domestic matters and an Anfield clash between the sides that go into this weekend first and second in the Premier League table.

“One hundred per cent,” Henderson told Liverpoolfc.com post-match, when asked if the win in Portugal represented the ideal way to warm up for Sunday.
