Arsenal legend Thierry Henry gave fans at Anfield a glimpse of his very, very best after nailing a cheeky pass to Ryan Babel during an All-Stars game between a Steven Gerrard XI and a Jamie Carragher XI. The former Arsenal man hung up his boots in December, but there was no sign of rustiness as the 37-year-old former France international pulled off the audacious move. Henry, who had been playing for MLS side New York Red Bulls before calling it a day, looked set to pull the trigger after picking up the ball on the edge of the box, only to dummy a shot with his right and play a pass with his left. Arsenal legend Thierry Henry looks set to go for goal as he picks up the ball on his right foot just outside the box during the game . But the former France international fools everybody has he dummies the shot and passes with his left foot to find Ryan Babel in space . A confused defender backs away as Henry's trickery gets the better of him in front of the Anfield support as he plays Babel through . The ball falls to  Babel who sadly drags his effort wide of goal as fans at the All-Stars game applaud Henry's trickery at Anfield on Sunday .

Babel was the man to benefit from the pass as it rolled perfectly to his feet, but the Dutchman dragged his effort wide in a manner Liverpool fans had become fully accustomed to during his time on Merseyside. The first goal of the game had been scored by Mario Balotelli and a cracker it was too, the Italian whipping a 25-yard drive that fizzed into the corner of The Kop net on nine minutes. He wasn’t put under great pressure but the finish still smacked of class. At one stage it looked as if Carragher’s side, managed by Roy Evans, would saunter to victory but Gerrard has made comebacks a fixture of his Liverpool career and he ensured this match did not end in defeat.

Pepe Reina does his best to stop Gerrard from scoring from the spot after a penalty was awarded to the Liverpool captain's side . A second penalty of the afternoon followed for Gerrard and he duly converted that one too to level the scores at Anfield Stadium . He scored two penalties, one in the 36th minute after Martin Kelly had adjudged to trip Jerome Sinclair and another just after the hour when Carragher quite clearly barged Luis Suarez over. Some would say the Sportsmail columnist was lucky not to make it into Lee Probert’s book. The icing on the cake would have been a goal for either Torres or Suarez but, despite the best efforts of the Uruguayan in particular, it never arrived. No matter.
