'We wanted to perform for the fans at Anfield - they helped us'

Barry Lewtas couldn’t hide his delight as Liverpool U23s produced a sparkling display in front of the Kop as they beat Arsenal 3-0 in Premier League 2.

It was a return to winning ways for the young Reds on Saturday in front of a very appreciative Anfield crowd.

Mateusz Musialowski made it an 18th birthday to remember with the opening goal at the Anfield Road end – following on from his FA Youth Cup strike at L4 against the Gunners last season.

Paul Glatzel, on loan at Tranmere Rovers, returned to provide a brilliant assist and claim a special individual goal himself to make it 2-0.
