Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson was full of praise for young teammate Rhys Williams after their 2-1 win over Tottenham.

The youth team product filled in at centre-back due to the injury sustained by Joel Matip in the last match.

Williams was outstanding alongside Fabinho at centre-half, with a solitary Son Heung-Min goal on the counter the only blip from the Reds' rear guard.

Speakin post-game, Henderson told Amazon: "Well, I told you before the game he had been outstanding and I hoped for the same tonight and he was outstanding again.

"He was one of the best players on the park, he won the majority of things in the air, defended, I could hear him talking all the time, for such a young lad. Delighted for him.

"But not just him – Fabinho next to him, the whole back four and the whole team, to be honest."
