AcademyLiverpool U18s' friendly with NK Celje in Slovenia ends in draw

The young Reds created several good opportunities during the game but were unable to add the finishing touch.

U18s head coach Simon Wiles told Liverpoolfc.com: "It was a very pleasing performance and there was a lot we could take out of it.

"It was good to see the lads put into practice some of the things we have been working on this week in training.

"AJ Yeguo and La'more Lee Forrester were lively for us and created some decent openings, but we just couldn't finish it off. But there is still lots for us to work on and the goals will come.

"We have had a great week away in Slovenia working closely with the U21s squad and it has been really beneficial to us.

"It has been a really valuable experience. We have watched the U21s train and they have watched us, so we can take a lot out of this trip to Slovenia."
