It was a frustrating Saturday morning for Liverpool U18s who lost 2-0 at Manchester City.

Steve Cooper's side played some outstanding football at times but despite all their possession and endeavour they came away from the match with nothing.

The young Reds were without Jerome Sinclair who was on the mark for England U17s during the victory over Turkey.

Cooper told Liverpoolfc.com: "It was tough to take because we played really well and deserved a lot more.

"I have no complaints with the boys and just disappointment for them. If we play like that for the rest of the season we will do well.

"They scored the first goal from a set piece and the second came when we were chasing the game."

Liverpool U18s: Ryan Fulton, Nathan Quirk, Joe Maguire, Michael Williams, Niall Heaton, Yalany Baio, Kristoffer Peterson, Jordan Lussey, Sam Gainford, Daniel-Trickett Smith, Connor Randall.
