Cries of ‘England’s number one’ reverberated around Bramall Lane after the on-loan Manchester United stopper pulled off a fine save to deny City’s Gabriel Jesus from the penalty spot in the 37th minute.
It came after the 22-year-old had produced two stunning saves to thwart Nicolas Otamendi and Raheem Sterling.

And Henry Winter, chief football writer for The Times, wrote on Twitter: “Deano, Deano” reverberates around Bramall Lane. Dean Henderson saves Jesus’ penalty after also denying Otamendi and Sterling. Some keeper. Surely heading to the Euros with Pickford and Pope.”
United fans have also been quick to praise the ‘keeper on Twitter.

Hide Ad@LateLateKickOff Henderson is playing a blinder for #twitterblades tonight. Why #mufc gave DeGea a new contract is beyond me. But why did VAR not insist the penalty was retaken. He was miles off the line. Then again... who cares?
@andyfree A fantastic first half performance from Hendo!
