Match report: U23s draw with Leicester in action-packed contest
Glenn Price
Liverpool U23s earned a commendable 2-2 draw against Leicester City at the Kirkby Academy on Monday afternoon.
The Reds took the lead in the Premier League 2 contest after 18 minutes through Leighton Clarkson's fine finish, despite having Morgan Boyes sent off early on.
Jake Wakeling equalised for Leicester on the stroke of half-time, before Ben Woodburn then went up the other end to make it 2-1 with a penalty in first-half stoppage time.
But Barry Lewtas' side were made to settle for a point in their penultimate fixture of the season when Kasey McAteer fired in midway through the second period.
