Henderson on 'outstanding' Alisson, digging in and winning momentum

Jordan Henderson paid tribute to Alisson Becker after the goalkeeper's immense performance provided the foundation of Liverpool's 3-1 win over Crystal Palace.

The No.1 made several outstanding saves to keep the Eagles at bay at Selhurst Park on Sunday afternoon, with goals from Virgil van Dijk and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, plus Fabinho’s late penalty, earning a crucial Premier League victory.

“He was [outstanding], but he’s always like that, to be honest!” Henderson told Liverpoolfc.com, when asked about Alisson’s contribution.

“You do take him for a granted a little bit. With the saves that he makes, he makes them look so easy, but there was a couple of big moments in the second half that he sort of dug us out and kept us in the game.
