Liverpool 1-1 Atletico Madrid (pens 4-5): Jordan Henderson misses the crucial spot kick as Diego Simeone's side secure Audi Cup triumph in Munich

Jordan Henderson was the unfortunate victim of the lottery of the penalty shootout as Liverpool were beaten by Atletico Madrid in the Audi Cup final on Wednesday.

The England midfielder missed the Reds' second penalty after 90 minutes failed to separate the two sides at Munich's Allianz Arena. Keidi Bare had given the La Liga side a first-half lead, heading home from close range following heroics from Danny Ward in the Liverpool goal. And their advantage lasted until the final seven minutes, when Roberto Firmino converted a penalty to bring the Reds level.

There was a hint of controversy in its awarding with Atletico defenders feeling Divock Origi went down easily, despite being clipped.
