Alisson breaks silence on heated row with Jordan Henderson

Alisson Becker has shut down suggestions of a rift between him and Jordan Henderson after they clashed during Liverpool’s draw with Chelsea.

during the closing stages of the match, a poor headed clearance from Joel Matip presented Chelsea’s Joao Felix with a chance, but the on-loan forward failed to control his effort and fired well over.

in the immediate aftermath of that incident, a furious Henderson confronted Alisson, as the Liverpool captain appeared to accuse his goalkeeper of not communicating with Matip.

The Brazilian responded angrily and the pair were briefly in each other’s faces before Henderson walked away.

Alisson: Me and Henderson, we are two people who fight, who give our lives for their team,”

“And on the field there is no way to ask 'please'.

“So sometimes it seems that the mood is high, but it’s two people trying to fix it, do things in the best way for the team and try to help.”

Of course it’s been difficult, it’s been a great challenge. We are human beings and we feel as much as anyone else. We get frustrated when something negative happens.

“We rejoice when we are well. But football, the difference is that we can’t spend a long time lamenting because that’s the good side of football.

“When things are going badly, two, three days after a match that the team doesn’t play well, there’s already an opportunity that can show again. So that’s our challenge this season. Each game will show our real quality and play together as a team.”
