On 22 February, he scored on his international debut in the Copa Libertadores in a 5–1 win over Godoy Cruz of Mendoza, in where Henríquez scored the last goal of the victory in the 90th minute.[4] On 28 February, he incremented his tally goal scoring a twice in a 4–1 win over Cobreloa, being this his first goals for tournaments of the Chilean Primera División.[5]
