Jordan Henderson laughed off his haters on his return to Anfield on Wednesday night.

Liverpool legend Henderson, 36, played the full 90 minutes of the Carabao Cup last-16 tie as Chelsea lost 6-5 on penalties, although the veteran did score his spot kick.

It capped what must have been a strange night for the midfielder as he went back to the club where he made 492 appearances and won eight trophies over a 12-year period. Henderson left to join the Saudi Arabian side Al-Ettifaq in the summer of 2023.

Despite his long service, Henderson received a vociferous reception as a Chelsea player, with the home faithful booing him every time he touched the ball.

And after the Blues were awarded a penalty in the first half when Ryan Gravenberch fouled Moises Caicedo, that atmosphere escalated further.

Henderson picked up the ball and walked towards the penalty spot as if he were going to take the spot kick.
