Ben Doak sizzles against Rangers as former Celtic star lives up to Liverpool best in class hype

Former Celtic star Ben Doak netted for Liverpool 's U19s to sink Rangers in the UEFA Youth League and add to his burgeoning reputation.

The 16-year-old was recently named the Anfield side's best academy product - backing up the rave reviews bestowed upon him since joining from the Premiership champions in the summer. The boyhood Celtic fan grabbed the second for the hosts during their 4-1 romp to make it three consecutive wins.

Rangers battled manfully, however, their resistance was breached in the 22nd minute when the alert Oakley William Cannonier fired home the opener. And then it was Doak's turn to get in on the act as he was on hand to tuck home from close range after Bobby Clark's effort ricocheted off the post and onto the toe of the Scotland U21 international. The Ibrox side - winners on matchday two over Napoli - didn't give up but their fate was sealed 10 minutes after the restart when Jarell Amorin Quansah struck. The skipper was dominant throughout and the goal was a reflection of his all-action efforts.
