Oakley Cannonier’s last-minute equaliser secured a 3-3 draw for Liverpool U18s in Saturday’s eventful trip to Nottingham Forest.
The forward scored a predatory diving header - his sixth goal in three U18 Premier League North appearances this season - to ensure the young Reds emerged from an incident-packed match with a hard-earned point.
Marc Bridge-Wilkinson was forced to make two first-half substitutions due to injuries sustained by Francis Gyimah and James McConnell, who had earlier put his team in front before Forest turned the game on its head.
Detlef Esapa Osong netted twice and Ben Hammond added a third before Liverpool debutant Bobby Clark pulled one back during the 10 minutes of first-half stoppage time.
