On his fitness, Henderson said: "The toughest part of being an athlete is dealing with injuries. It wasn't easy. I'm in a pretty good place. It was great to get on the pitch finally in a competitive game and get 45 minutes under my belt.

"I feel really positive, and hopefully I can keep contributing to the team.'

Henderson also revealed that Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp had been in touch after England and Germany were matched in the last 16.

He added: "Yes, he has texted. As soon as the final whistle went he just sent a smiley face emoji."
