Jordan Henderson’s furious reaction to being hit on the head has fans in hysterics

Jordan Henderson’s furious reaction to being hit on the head has fans in hysterics with the video going viral since Wednesday night.

The Liverpool captain looked like he was ready to kill Joel Matip after he cheekily slapped not just his head but the heads of other teammates during the Reds’ goal celebrations against Inter Milan.

Jurgen Klopp’s side won 2-0 away at the San Siro in the Champions League round of 16 first leg against the Serie A giants, with Roberto Firmino and Mo Salah scoring in quick succession late in the second half.

Man of the match: Ibrahima Konate.

Firmino, who came off the bench at half time, broke the deadlock with a header from Harvey Elliott’s corner in the 75th minute.

Liverpool players all ran towards the touchline to celebrate and huddled up, giving opportunity for substitute Matip warming up nearby to playfully smack Henderson.

Henderson had his back to Matip at the time, but the England international’s facial expression, a death stare, got everyone laughing.

“It was an incredibly physical game so we had to find a way,” Jurgen Klopp told BT Sport.

“I think we started really well and we had to play around their formation in the beginning. Then it came up a bit and it’s some pretty direct play they have with the switches to the wing-backs and we didn’t defend that too well. In a game like this, you have to keep the ball longer and that didn’t happen often enough.

“But we cannot come here and hope you’ll have a brilliant day and that’s the only chance to get a result. We didn’t have a brilliant day but a good enough day to be deserved winners because we scored two wonderful goals. Yes, they had their moments, but mainly counter-attacks when we lost the ball in the wrong spaces.”

“I’m really happy with everything, apart from that Diogo had to go off with something around the ankle ligament,” said Klopp. “We will see, we don’t know exactly. He could have played on, maybe that’s a good sign, but at half-time, the ankle was swollen anyway so we knew we had to change. Apart from that, it’s another adult performance and I’m really happy about that.”

While disappointed with the result, Inter coach Simone Inzaghi could have few complaints with his team’s performance. “I think this match was good,” he said.

“We have to be proud. We played against one of the best teams in Europe and for 65 minutes we deserved to win it but it didn’t happen and we didn’t manage to score.”
