James Milner Brilliantly Responds To Henderson's Wife Giving Birth Nine Months After Barca Win

James Milner produced an incredible response to the news that Jordan Henderson's wife has given birth.

The Liverpool skipper's other half, Rebecca Burnett, gave birth to their third child exactly nine months and one day after the Reds produced one of the greatest second leg comebacks when they beat Barcelona 4-0 at Anfield en route to winning a sixth European Cup.

It's also believed that Mo Salah's wife has also given birth to another girl, giving us a clear clue as to how both players celebrated the massive result in the days that followed the Champions League semi-final second leg.

And Milner, who has become a bit of a hero on Twitter as well as the pitch, brilliantly replied with 'Origi assist' - a tribute to his Liverpool teammate Divock Origi who came up clutch.

The Belgian scored the opening goal early on at Anfield to make it 3-1 on aggregate and after Gini Wijnaldum bagged a brace, Origi notched the winner late on from Trent Alexander-Arnold's quickly-taken corner.

Liverpool fans been reacting in a similar way to Milner on social media, celebrating their captain welcoming a third child into the world:

There's no word on the name just yet but Reds fans will no doubt be extremely disappointed if the baby is not named 'Divock Henderson'.
