United's Under-18s stage comeback win at Liverpool

Under-18s boss Neil Ryan will presumably be delighted by the effort and togetherness that his young side showed, in difficult circumstances, which will surely benefit their progression this season.

The tie needed a period of extra time to separate the teams after 90 minutes produced an entertaining 2-2 draw, and our young Reds prevailed after digging deep to achieve their progression.

Liverpool had led by two goals following first-half strikes from Paul Glatzel and Bobby Duncan, but a red card for Morgan Boyes led to Mason Greenwood and Teden Mengi striking back in the second half, before the former scored his second free-kick of the tie to claim the win in extra time.
