Even before kick-off, Trent Alexander-Arnold found himself at the center of attention.
Details: The Liverpool academy graduate, who made a summer move to Real Madrid, returned to his beloved home ground for the first time wearing the shirt of the Spanish giants. But the “Merseysiders” faithful gave their former star a frosty reception — as soon as Trent stepped onto the Anfield pitch, the stands erupted in boos.
For Alexander-Arnold himself, this match was loaded with personal significance: it was here that he spent most of his career, winning both the Champions League and the Premier League with Liverpool.
Recall: Unknown vandals defaced Trent's mural in Liverpool.
