Liverpool's captain Jordan Henderson scored a rare goal in the UEFA Champions League, leading his team to a 3-2 victory over Italian guests AC Milan in an exciting match that kicked off Group B on Wednesday. Henderson found the net in the 69th minute, sealing the intense encounter after Liverpool had threatened an early lead when Fikayo Tomori scored an own goal.
Milan surged back after Mohamed Salah missed a penalty, managing to score two quick goals before the end of the first half through Ante Rebic and Ibrahim Diaz, amid the silence of Liverpool fans.
A goal for Milan was ruled out at the beginning of the second half, while Salah redeemed himself from the missed penalty by equalizing from close range in the 49th minute. The score remained uncertain until Henderson scored the winning goal in a memorable night at Anfield, marking his second goal in the competition and his first in seven years.
