That showcased bouncing balls, multi-touch volleys, and single-touch volleys, including a bicycle kick, but no half-volleys.
This shows half-volleys:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8cMecvoYLh8
Many of these are "multi-touch half-volleys", mainly basic trap and half-volley, but also dribble and half-volley.
Of the single-touch half-volleys, most are off the second or third bounce, with single-touch single-bounce half-volley goals quite rare. |

Liverpool 3-2 West Ham
A shaky performance, and Henderson has a hamstring injury.
...........................................
"Liverpool earned a record-equalling 18th consecutive Premier League win as the runaway leaders came from behind to beat West Ham 3-2 thanks to Sadio Mane’s late strike on Monday.
...
The Reds’ dramatic escape ensured they equalled Manchester City’s English top-flight record of 18 consecutive league wins set between August and December 2017.
Their 21st successive league victory at Anfield also equalled their own English top-flight record for consecutive home wins, set by Bill Shankly’s team between January and December 1972.
...
They are unbeaten in their last 44 league matches, just five short of Arsenal’s all-time English record of 49."

21 PL home wins in a row" |

Liverpool thrashed 0-3 by Watford!
Well, that puts an end to a lot of record targets! It's a bit disappointing in many ways; with the title already decided in practice, if not mathematically, those targets were something suspenseful remaining in the season.
There's also media talk about what'll happen if coronavirus halts the season. |

Liverpool fall five games short of equalling Arsenal's record.
Good to see them finally lose in the PL, and then during the week in the FA Cup against us

They were hanging on, in poor form, seemingly for months, and finally the dam wall broke. |

But wait, there's more...
Tom Hird has quit football and has been cat-B rookie-listed by his father's club:
"The 19-year-old Tom was until only months ago trialling with Ajax in the Netherlands having previously trialled with Stoke City, as he pursued his soccer career.
...
He was a very good soccer player and lived in Europe pursuing that as a career...
He is smaller than his dad and having played soccer he has good speed and aerobic fitness but lacks upper-body strength development.
...
Tom, the eldest of the three, had a trial at Stoke City three years ago and Hird said in September last year on an ABC podcast with Santo, Sam and Ed that his sons were "definitely going down the football route rather than the AFL route"."
