Liverpool U18s were held to a 1-1 draw at Burnley on Tuesday afternoon.
Although the young Reds were not at their free-flowing, free-scoring best, Luke Chambers’ goal early in the second half looked set to secure three points that would have sent them top of the U18 Premier League North on goal difference – albeit with both Manchester clubs retaining games in hand.
But Burnley equalised through Will Couch with 77 minutes on the clock and, despite Marc Bridge-Wilkinson’s side then pushing for a late winner, the hosts stood firm to claim a share of the spoils.
