Liverpool defender Trent Alexander-Arnold continued his superb season with a top display to help the Reds defeat AC Milan.
Alexander-Arnold started and played 79 minutes for Liverpool in their 3-1 Champions League victory over the Italian club.

Alexander-Arnold was certainly heavily involved, with the right-back helping initiate the comeback with an assist for Ibrahima Konate's equaliser.
