Liverpool U19s and FC Porto played out a close-fought 1-1 draw in the UEFA Youth League on Tuesday afternoon.
Melkamu Frauendorf’s 80th-minute equaliser cancelled out Diogo Abreu’s second-half opener to secure the young Reds a hard-earned point at Estadio Luis Filipe Menezes.
The result leaves Liverpool and Porto joint top of Group B on four points after two matches, with Atletico Madrid and AC Milan back on one point apiece following their draw in Italy earlier in the day.
Both teams served early warnings of their attacking quality as Benicio Baker-Boaitey and Mateusz Musialowski traded attempts on goal.
