Bobby Duncan's stoppage-time goal sent Liverpool into the fourth round of the FA Youth Cup with a 3-2 win over Portsmouth on Tuesday night.
Clinically-taken first-half goals from Duncan and Abdi Sharif had earned the Reds a healthy advantage 45 minutes into the tie at the Totally Wicked Stadium.
But it was a different story after the break, with Bradley Lethbridge halving the visitors’ deficit before setting up Joe Hancott for an equaliser.
Liverpool were not to be denied, however, and Duncan was the hero for Barry Lewtas’ side when he forced home Paul Glatzel’s cross from close range to finally defeat Portsmouth and set up a fourth-round clash with Accrington Stanley.
