It wasn’t a vintage performance from Jordan Henderson as England somehow escaped with a point from their clash with Slovenia.

The Liverpool was the stand-in captain in Wayne Rooney’s absence, but it was an error-riddled display from the 26-year-old.

But his standout ‘highlight’ of the evening came in the second half when he gifted Slovenia with one of their best chances of the evening.

While Mesut Ozil audaciously pulled off a no-look pass in Arsenal’s victory over Chelsea last month, Henderson’s attempts had quite the opposite effect.


Henderson looks like he’ll play the ball out to the wing.

But instead opts to play a super-soft pass to Gary Cahill… without looking.

Henderson was looking straight at Andros Townsend when he played the incredibly loose pass back to Gary Cahill.



Josip Ilicic read Henderson’s mistake and race through on goal after beating Gary Cahill.

But the Liverpool midfield was rescued by Joe Hart, who produced another fine save.

Josip Ilicic nips in ahead of Cahill to get one-on-one with Joe Hart.

But Hart pulls off a fine stop to spare Henderson’s blushes.

Just look where you’re passing, Jordan.
