One year on from grabbing the social media spotlight with an assist and crunching challenge on Kylian Mbappe by Northern Ireland’s Conor Bradley, the Liverpool right-back has been once again celebrated online for a Champions League performance against Real Madrid.

Tuesday’s 1-0 victory at Anfield in front of a record European attendance of 59,916 fans attracted widespread praise as former Dungannon Swifts player Bradley proved impressive against highly-rated Vinicius Jr.

Here are some of the reactions across social media:

@meganb_x: Being present to watch Conor Bradley body Vini Jr is an experience I’ll never ever forget.

@beatts94: Top 5 right-backs of all time: 1. Cafu, 2. Conor Bradley when he plays Madrid, 3. Carlos Alberto, 4. Philipp Lahm, 5. Javier Zanetti.

@lfcloch: Conor Bradley against Madrid might be the best fullback to ever play the beautiful game.

@Keldoggydog: Can’t get over that Conor Bradley performance. Best from a Liverpool player this season imo.

@LFCSteAl: I want to see more and more of that Conor Bradley. That's the benchmark performance for him.

@Fahadjrr: Locked up Kylian Mbappe last season. Locked up Vinicius Jr tonight. Conor Bradley.

@SpiritOf2016Pod: Vinicius Junior is arguably the best footballer on the planet. Conor Bradley made an absolute wee boy out of him tonight.

Liverpool manager Arne Slot highlighted Bradley’s “outstanding” performance in his post-match press conference.

“Conor was outstanding...it was very nice,” said Slot, as reported on the official Liverpool FC website. “Last season he was outstanding against Real Madrid but he had to go off after 80 minutes because of an injury.

"Now, three days after he played 90 minutes against Villa, he again played 90 minutes with incredible intensity against Vinicius.

"I told the players before the game, they have scored 26 goals in La Liga and Kylian Mbappe and Vinicius have 24 goal contributions together.

"So if you want to have any chance of winning a game, you should defend your set-pieces well because that's a way teams score, but great individuals can score goals as well and these two definitely can.

"Conor defended very good against Vinicius.”
