It was back to the academy for Barry Lewtas’ men following on from their win over Southampton last time out, with four changes made for the visit of Brighton.
Owen Beck, Luis Longstaff, Ben Woodburn and Leighton Clarkson were injected back into the XI after their training block with Jurgen Klopp‘s first team, adding experience back into the lineup.
But the game got off to a wobbly start as the Reds were punished for a moment of poor judgement, with Remi Savage pressured from behind and playing a soft back pass which fell to Evan Ferguson, who smashed his effort into the top corner.
