The Crystal Palace goalkeeper had come to claim a James Hill long throw.
Henderson fumbled the ball, however, leaving it free in the penalty area.
The Argentina international pounced on it, but controlled it away from goal.
He then went down theatrically, with Henderson in his vicinity.

In television replays it was unclear whether the England international actually made contact with Senesi at all.
But VAR Peter Bankes did not see enough evidence to send Jones to the monitor and potentially overturn the controversial decision.
After Senesi eventually got up, Eli Kroupi Jr converted from the penalty spot.
