The centre-back was handed his maiden senior cap with Les Bleus, and he made the most of the opportunity with a sensational defensive showing.

Jacquet lost just one of his duels contested and made four recoveries. He completed 92 percent of his passes and looked assured in central defence.

Jacquet has shown maturity beyond his years since his move to Liverpool and he has proved an upgrade on Ibrahima Konate, who left on a free transfer. The 21-year-old has made the right centre-back position his own and has formed a brilliant partnership alongside Virgil van Dijk in the heart of the Reds defence.
