Liverpool enjoyed a victorious visit to Villa Park and finished the Boxing Day match with three goals and three points, but many were left talking about Trent Alexander-Arnold’s pass in the build-up to Mo Salah’s opener.
Our number 66 provided the pre-assist for Andy Robertson and the effort from the outside of the booty was so good that Jordan Henderson couldn’t help but praise our team’s Scouser for the goal.

As soon as the Egyptian king rolled the ball into the back of the net and looked to see that the linesman’s flag had not been raised, our captain immediately pointed to his right-back.
It was a simple move, but it shows how quickly the 32-year-old realized his international teammate’s role in the opening goal of the festive fixture.
