Henderson was donning the captain’s armband for Ajax in a 2-0 win over Utrecht and was clearly giving his all.
In a video shared by the official Ajax X account, the 33-year-old could be seen chasing down a loose ball deep into the Utrecht half in an attempt to win back possession for his side.
And after an intense press the former Liverpool man managed to force Utrecht goalkeeper Mattijs Branderhorst to mishit his clearance and give away a throw-in.
The normally standard passage of play led Henderson to go mad and celebrate with the Ajax fans inside the Johan Cruyff Arena.
The midfielder pumped his fists and screamed in celebration before trotting back into position and doing his duties.
Fans were left bemused by the burst of passion and took to social media to voice their opinions.
One wrote: “So this is what we’re celebrating now?”
While another added: “Possibly the most ‘Jordan Henderson’ thing I have ever seen.”

Others perhaps jokingly suggested that the passionate effort may have earned Henderson a spot in Gareth Southgate‘s England squad for the Euros this summer.
One wrote: “Southgate will be impressed with that run.”
And a second added: “He better be in the England squad after this.”
While a third chimed in writing: “He knows the Euros are approaching.”
Henderson is settling into life in Amsterdam since signing for Ajax in January after his sour spell in Saudi came to an end.
The former Al-Ettifaq man has captained Ajax in his last two league appearances and is becoming a more regular feature in manager John van ‘t Schip’s side.
