Liverpool's James Milner: Scores from spot in draw
Milner converted a penalty kick in Saturday's 1-1 draw with Tottenham Hotspur.
Analysis:
Milner's not a big goal scorer, having scored just 42 Premier League goals in his 419 match career in the English top flight. However, from the spot, the 30-year-old was as confident as any, calmly slotting the ball into the bottom corner of the goal. Playing in a somewhat unfamiliar left back role ahead of the oft-maligned Alberto Moreno, Milner will need to balance his new-found defensive responsibilities with his role in the Reds attack.
