Henry appreciated the way he pocketed Vinicius who is one of the best left-wingers in Europe at the moment.

“Kyle Walker is a beast. Whenever you have to run with him, then you might as well stop. At one point, he was way behind Vinicius Jr, and he just caught him.

“Put his arm, took the ball and said ‘bye’, then went the other way. When it comes to that, he is too good.

“I have to say, he put Mbappe in his pocket at the quarter-final of the World Cup. He put a lot of players that are actually outstanding in his pocket.

“It is not easy to beat him. You have to give him a lot of credit,” Henry told CBS Sports on Paramount+ (via HITC).
