Ibrahim Konate gave Liverpool the lead in tonight’s Champions League match against Benfica with a header.
The French defender tapped into a corner kick by Costas Tsimikas in the 21st minute and deceived a header that passed the Benfica keeper to make it 1-0 for the Premier League side.
The goal, which can be seen below, gives Liverpool a comfortable 4-1 lead on aggregate and should lead the Reds into the semi-finals to face Villarreal.
Another amazing header from Ibrahima Konate! ????
He did it last week and is it again this evening?

The Benfica players will kick themselves, as no one jumped when the corner came in.
