Mohamed Salah made history last night, becoming one of the very few away players to have scored a hat-trick at Old Trafford.
However, what was partially lost in the Egyptian's crowning moment was the through-ball that allowed him to net his third (and Liverpool's fifth) goal in a dominant away win over Manchester United.
With five minutes gone in the second half, Liverpool were still searching to add to their goal tally of four - nobody more so than captain Henderson.

The 31-year-old beautifully curled a through-ball with the outside of his boot, around the static United defenders, and expertly into the path of the on-rushing Salah.
As you might expect, the forward applied the finishing touches with a neat finish past David De Gea, to complete the rout for the away side.
It was a salient reminder of Henderson's often overlooked passing range, which many fans were keen to point out on social media.

Liverpool fans were still lauding the Skipper's through ball on social media the morning after, with some drawing comparisons to a famous assist Steven Gerrard made at Fulham back in 2014.

While the contributions of Henderson may get overlooked from time to time, his pin-point ball for Salah at Old Trafford on Sunday once again highlights his enduring importance to Jurgen Klopp's side.
It was certainly a pass that Gerrard would have been proud of - who's famous assist for Sturridge you can see below.
