The talented goalkeeper and proud Academy graduate produced a fine display for Aidy Boothroyd’s side in Cesena, and impressed supporters when he pulled off an incredible first-half penalty save to deny Lyon striker Moussa Dembele.
The spot-kick was awarded in the 25th minute after Jake Clarke-Salter was adjudged to have handled the ball in the area. Dembele is regarded as one of the most clinical finishers in the tournament, but Henderson’s agile reactions saw him get a huge hand to the ball and palm it to safety.
A brilliant penalty save from @deanhenderson to deny Moussa Dembele ud83dudc50#younglionspic.
