Liverpool Under-21s came from behind to claim local-bragging rights against Everton on Saturday afternoon.
Ben Doak was the match-winner as he made his first start for the young Reds, who also named summer signing Calvin Ramsay in their starting XI, after Jake Cain had pounced on a defensive error to cancel out Stan Mills’ early opener.
Full of confidence from their 6-0 victory over Hartlepool United in the Papa John’s Trophy in midweek, Everton started brightly at the LFC Academy and had Harvey Davies to curse for not building a comfortable lead inside the opening 10 minutes.
