Trent Alexander-Arnold once again dazzled for Liverpool on Wednesday night as he helped put the side 1-0 up in the first half.
The England wing-back, who has been in cracking form of late amassing two goals and two assists in Liverpool’s last four games, swung a brilliant corner in to Virgil van Dijk, who, unmarked in the Sheffield penalty area, volleyed home to give the reds the lead.
According to Opta, it was Alexander-Arnold’s 75th assist for Liverpool since he joined the club back in 2016 with only Kevin De Bruyne and Mohamed Salah ahead of him with more assists for their teams.
But just as Alexander-Arnold stepped up to swing the corner in, fans noticed that he had pulled his shorts down ever so slightly, revealing the top half of his bum.
Fans online spotted the incident with many taking to social media to joke about the moment.

For Chris Wilder, it was a disappointing return to Bramall Lane, with the Sheffield United manager having previously admitted that he was hopeful he could make a difference at the club.
‘Obviously it’s not a great situation that the club are in, but it is what it is, and hopefully we can make a little bit of a difference starting tonight,’ he said before the match.
‘It’s a massive job and everyone’s talking about us and the narrative is that we’ve gone and this club has been built.
‘The skipper will know what this club is about, it’s an underdog club, it’s a fight against the odds and we’re on that situation now.
‘We’ve had it for a long-long time. Many years ago before me, even in the city aswell, so we’re used to it and hopefully we can come out fighting.’
