Reserves win

Antonio Barragan, playing as a right midfielder, scored the only goal of the game after midfielder Danny Guthrie's original shot was saved and the ball fell to the Spanish under 21's international.

New signings Jack Hobbs, Miki Roque and Ramon Castille all started for the Reds with fellow new boy Besian Idrazaj entering the fray as a second half subsitute.

Peter Crouch also made his return from injury last night, coming on at the hour mark and forcing a save from the West Brom keeper after dribbling through the Baggies' defence.
