Jordan Henderson: 'Ross Barkley mistimed Merseyside derby tackle'

Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson plays down the impact of Ross Barkley's tackle on him in Monday night's Premier League Merseyside derby at Everton.

Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson has revealed that he is fine after being on the receiving end of a tackle from Everton midfielder Ross Barkley in Monday's Merseyside derby.

The Reds claimed all three points at Goodison Park as Sadio Mane's injury-time strike proved enough for a 1-0 away win.

Barkley was criticised by pundits for a ferocious lunge on Henderson in the 69th minute, for which he was shown a yellow card by referee Mike Dean.

Henderson told BBC Sport after the game: "It was a bit hectic and a bit wild. We dealt with it well. We knew Everton would come at us from the off.

"[The tackle] was pretty late but I know Ross well - he's a good lad and he mistimed it. He apologised after the match. Thankfully I'm alright.

"It's a derby. When you're on the pitch you give 100% to win the game."

The result sees Jurgen Klopp's charges climb to second in the Premier League table, six points behind leaders Chelsea.
