14 Things We Loved This Weekend: Henderson, Neuer, Seedorf, Anfield banners & more
Club football returned with a bang this weekend, with Manchester City’s win over Liverpool taking much of the headlines.
Away from the strange occasion at Anfield, we were treated to some old-timers rolling back the years and wonderful moments from across the globe.
Here are 14 things that earned the Planet Football seal of approval this weekend.
Paul Merson
Spot on.
Kingsley Coman
Cristiano Ronaldo’s head must’ve been on Mars. Lovely stuff.

When did Henderson transform into Andrea Pirlo?
Liverpool banners
Oasis references, a nod to titles being reallocated, and a load of £££££££s.
Mexican Women’s Football
That’s the Puskas Award wrapped up.

Arsenal fans won’t remember anything like this.
Manuel Neuer
Never change, Manuel.

Fan action works.

Proper football.
Scenes at the end of Croatian Eternal Derby after playing through torrential rain most of the second half and multiple delays – two big chances 90’+15′ by u/50lipaa in soccer
Seb Fisher
Just a 16-year-old Scot firing them in for Uganda. As you do.
This game
Lunacy.
Clarence Seedorf
His first managerial job since 2019 will be at Corinthians. Some gig.

His namesake would’ve been proud of that one.
