Liverpool youngster battled through 20 months of injury problems for 'unbelievable' moment against Man United

Liverpool youngster Tom Hill has opened up on his cameo against Manchester United earlier this week and his journey to recovery from injury problems that began almost two years ago.

The 19-year-old played the final 30 minutes of the 4-0 defeat to Erik ten Hag's side on Tuesday and was brought on alongside the likes of Mohamed Salah and new signing Darwin Nunez. Manager Jurgen Klopp changed the entire outfield team every 30 minutes and Hill was among the the final XI to take to the field.
