Liverpool U23s drew 0-0 with Coventry City’s first team in a pre-season friendly on Wednesday evening.
The game at Rugby Town was a tight affair featuring few chances at either end, with the young Reds’ clearest sight of goal falling to Liam Millar, who was denied one-on-one by Coventry goalkeeper Ben Wilson just before the hour.
The stalemate extends Neil Critchley’s side’s unbeaten run this summer to five matches, and the manager was satisfied with how his players acquitted themselves against League One opposition.
“It was an even contest. I would say they had a bit more territory and carried a bit more of a threat than us in the first half, but without creating too many clear-cut chances, and I thought we defended very well as a team throughout the whole game,” Critchley told Liverpoolfc.
