Report: Rhian Brewster strikes twice to secure comeback draw in Salzburg

Rhian Brewster netted a late brace Liverpool came from two goals down to draw 2-2 with Red Bull Salzburg in their second pre-season friendly of the summer in Austria on Tuesday.

The hosts took the lead inside three minutes when Fabinho conceded possession just outside his own area, allowing Patson Daka to stride through and finish beyond Alisson Becker.

Salzburg's No.20 netted a second goal moments later, sweeping in from close range despite the best endeavours of the Reds’ goalkeeper at the Red Bull Arena.

However, Brewster - on as a substitute just after the hour - reduced the arrears when he thumped in from James Milner’s lay-off on 71 minutes before equalising soon after with a measured finish from outside the area to complete a comeback and secure a draw.
