Match report: U18s lose eventful clash with Leeds
Liverpool U18s were beaten 5-2 by Leeds United in a hugely eventful U18 Premier League North clash on Saturday afternoon.
Having had three golden opportunities to strike in the opening 15 minutes, the young Reds fell behind to a Cian Coleman effort midway through the half and then lost Isaac Mabaya to a straight red card.
Coleman soon doubled his and Leeds’ tally, only for Oakley Cannonier to respond with his 11th league goal of 2021-22 and give the visitors a platform to battle from after the break.
But Ben Andreucci (two) and Luca Thomas added their names to the scoresheet to secure the points, despite a late consolation from Terence Miles.
