Liverpool U23s fell to their first Premier League 2 defeat of the season with a 2-1 reverse at Tottenham Hotspur.
Kaide Gordon gave Barry Lewtas’ side an early lead in Saturday’s match at Stevenage’s Lamex Stadium, but Alfie Devine equalised just after the half-hour mark and then grabbed an 81st-minute winner for Spurs.
Lewtas told Liverpoolfc.com: “We came up against a really good Tottenham team today so fair play to them, they kept the ball really well. I thought we had a few good moments, we started the game really well and scored.
“They grew into the game and had good spells of possession, but I thought we managed it quite well.
