Match report: Liverpool 3-0 Arsenal U-23s

Our unbeaten start to 2020 came to an end on a frustrating afternoon as we lost at Liverpool.

The first chance of the match fell to the hosts midway through the first half when Jack Bearne drove down the wing and forced Karl Hein into a save, before Dal Varesanovic fired the rebound wide.

Liverpool’s pressure paid off shortly after when a ball lofted into box reached an unmarked Morgan Boyes at the back post, who headed home to break the deadlock.

On the stroke of half time the Reds doubled their advantage when Varesanovic lost his marker inside the box, and swept James Norris’s pinpoint cross into the bottom corner.
