Liverpool's "big talent" hailed by Jurgen Klopp scores from own half on return from loan disaster

Liverpool youngster Billy Koumetio put his loan woes behind him to score a stunning goal from his own half on his return to action.

The 20-year-old centre-back featured in the club's under-21 Premier League International Cup fixture against Paris Saint-Germain at their Kirkby Academy on Wednesday, which the Reds won 4-2. Koumetio got the ball rolling with the first of his two goals on the night, an outstanding effort from behind the halfway line.

PSG's keeper Lucas Lavallee had ventured far enough off his line for Koumetio to fancy his chances, as he looked up while Liverpool were keeping possession and picked his spot. His long-range lob sailed over the backpedalling PSG stopper and nestled into the net, drawing wild celebrations from the crowd as he was mobbed by teammates.
