Bounding up and down while live-streaming the occasion on Instagram, Wijnaldum lost his grip on his phone and it fell down to supporters below.
Fortunately, fans returned it and a grinning Wijnaldum was swiftly reunited with the device.

The Dutchman was instrumental to Jürgen Klopp’s Reds reaching the final in the first place, scoring twice against Barcelona in the semi-finals.
That helped his side to a stunning 4-0 win at Anfield that overturned the 3-0 defeat they suffered at the Camp Nou in the first leg.
