'Bit of everything' - Liverpool youngster Ben Doak praised after record-breaking Scotland debut

Ben Doak's record-breaking debut for Scotland's under-21s came as no surprise to his international manager Scot Gemmill, as the Liverpool youngster continued his impressive start to the season with a fine display during the 3-1 victory over Northern Ireland.

Doak, who made the move from Scottish giants Celtic to Anfield earlier this year for a fee of £600,000, has wasted no time in impressing those at the club's Kirkby-based academy as he's been a standout performer for the young Reds both domestically and in the UEFA Youth League.

Having already fired four goals for his new club, including the winner against Napoli U19s earlier this month, the 16-year-old was rewarded for his excellent form with a promotion to Scotland's U21s side for the first of their back-to-back friendlies against Northern Ireland this week.
