A Liverpool team featuring Mamadou Sakho, Danny Ings and summer signing Marko Grujic drew 1-1 with Manchester United in Premier League 2 Division 1, a night after the senior sides shared the points in the Premier League.
The visitors took the lead in the 18th minute at Leigh Sports Village, when Liverpool captain Harry Wilson flicked the ball into the net after a shot by Pedro Chirivella.
Josh Harrop equalised with a penalty on 50 minutes following Chirivella's foul on Scott McTominay to end Liverpool's run of four straight wins in the competition.
