The Liverpool Under 19 side was stuffed 5-1 at home by Arsenal last night in the first-leg of the F.A. Premier Academy League play-off final.

Brian McIlroy scored Liverpool's goal and Neil Prince, who will leave the club in the summer after failing to secure a contract, won't have done his chances of finding a new club any harm. He played a blinder in front of the travelling Premiership scouts who came to see him in action.

LIVERPOOL: Parry, Otsemobor, Coupe, Nicholas (Vaughan 45), McNulty, Peers (Foy 82), Prince, Potter, Welsh, Mellor, Sjolund (McIlroy 70).

SUBS: Harrison, Dawes.
