Liverpool veteran James Milner put his many years of experience to good use as Mohamed Salah stepped up to take a penalty in the Community Shield clash with Manchester City.
The Reds defeated their rivals 3-1 at the King Power Stadium in the season's traditional curtain-raiser on Saturday evening. Salah scored the decisive goal from the penalty spot after Julian Alvarez levelled in the second half from Trent Alexander-Arnold's early opener.
The Egyptian showed nerves of steel to bury a powerful effort from 12 yards into the bottom corner and restore Liverpool's lead, before Darwin Nunez's header secured victory in added time. While the gazes of viewers up and down the country were fixed firmly on Salah as he ran up to take his spot kick, eagle-eyed fans have spotted Milner's clever actions right before the ball was struck.
