Jordan Henderson: 'Liverpool worked brilliantly as a team against Manchester City'

Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson is pleased with his teammates all 'chipping in with the hard yards' in Wednesday's Champions League win over Manchester City.

Jordan Henderson has saluted his Liverpool teammates for all 'chipping in' as Manchester City were comprehensively defeated 3-0 at Anfield.

The Reds surged into a shock three-goal lead by the 31-minute mark of Wednesday night's all-English Champions League quarter-final first leg.

Mohamed Salah, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Sadio Mane weighed in with the goals, while the Liverpool rearguard held firm for a crucial clean sheet.

"We knew the atmosphere would be brilliant and it was, and we made the most of that," Henderson, who was booked during the match, told BBC Sport. "Second half they came at us more, we dropped deep at times.

"Our game is about working together as a team and we did that brilliantly. We all chipped in with the hard yards.

"It's only the first leg. I didn't make many fouls in the game so it's disappointing to miss out next week."

The second leg of the tie takes place at the Etihad Stadium on Tuesday, April 10.
