Van Dijk grabbed an all-important second goal for Liverpool after Bayern had equalised
It was Van Dijk’s first European goal for Liverpool since his 75million move from Southampton last January, with the centre-back proving to be strangely ineffective in the opposition’s box despite his domination of Liverpool’s penalty area.The Netherlands international was at his commanding best in Munich, with Robert Lewandowski looking a shadow of his former self against Van Dijk.He won everything that came his way to stop Lewandowski ever having a sniff of goal, and Liverpool fans – as they have done since he signed – were lauding the 27-year-old with praise throughout the match and after the full-time whistle. And even the most powerful man at the club got involved – owner John W. Henry.Clearly the American is delighted his investment in Van Dijk is paying off, with Henry sharing a picture on social media platform Twitter of praise for the defender.
