Florian Wirtz was the star of the show as Liverpool beat Yokohama FM on Wednesday and the new signing was awarded a special prize for his efforts.
The Reds ended their tour of Asia with a 3-1 victory over the Japanese at the Nissan Stadium in Yokohama.
The home side took a surprise lead shortly after half-time but Wirtz levelled the scores when he pounced from 12 yards.
Arne Slot’s side then completed the turnaround through goals from Trey Nyoni and Rio Ngumoha.
Wirtz, who completed a £116m move from Bayer Leverkusen earlier this summer, pulled the strings until he was replaced in the second half.
And he was named man of the match after the referee brought the pre-season clash to an end.
