Arsenal icon Thierry Henry expressed surprise at the high quality of Liverpool’s display in their recent Champions League victory over Inter Milan.
Henry was particularly impressed by what he called a “proper Liverpool performance” under manager Arne Slot at San Siro. The Reds secured a vital 1-0 win, keeping their automatic qualification hopes alive and climbing to eighth in the group standings.
The decisive moment came from a penalty, awarded after a VAR review confirmed Alessandro Bastoni fouled Florian Wirtz.
Dominik Szoboszlai converted the spot-kick into the bottom corner.The victory not only provided a crucial three points but also snapped Liverpool’s run of nine defeats in their last 12 matches.
Henry on CBS Sports: “I liked the way Liverpool played and how Arne Slot stopped Inter from playing, his tactics were on point. That was a proper Liverpool performance.
I didn’t know they had it in their locker. That would have been a reassuring performance for Liverpool fans to watch.”
