Liverpool boss Matt Beard hailed his side's Continental Cup victory over Blackburn Rovers as a "good day all round", with the Reds making it three wins from three in the competition this season.
The hosts had most of the ball in the first half at Prenton Park, with Jasmine Matthews heading home on the stroke of half time to make Liverpool's early dominance count. Top-scorer Katie Stengel and defender Leighanne Robe squandered opportunities to extend the Reds' lead after the break, however one goal proved enough to seal Liverpool's first win since their 4-0 demolition of Leicester in October.
The result provides a welcome boost to Matt Beard's squad and ensures Liverpool remain top of Group B ahead of their decisive cup clash with Manchester City on December 7. The fixture will determine who automatically qualifies for the next round, with the quarter finals set to take place in late January.
