Will Alexander-Arnold lift Real Madrid as he did Liverpool?

At only 20 years old, Trent Alexander-Arnold was already etching himself into Liverpool folklore.

The game clock read 78:10, and Liverpool were making another famous European comeback vs. Barcelona during the second leg of their 2019 Champions League semifinal. Alexander-Arnold prepared to take a corner kick and saw Barcelona were lackadaisical in setting up defensively, so he took advantage with a perfect whipped pass to the feet of Divock Origi that decided the tie. Liverpool completed another one of their great Champions League escapes and advanced to the final, where they defeated Tottenham Hotspur to win their sixth European crown.
