Liverpool reached the knockout stages as they beat Huddersfield Town 6-2 to win Group G with a match to spare.
Ben Woodburn was integral to their blistering start, first the 17-year-old chipped in the opener before beating a defender with quick feet before setting up Matty Virtue to tap in Liverpool’s second on 22 minutes.
Harry Wilson made it 3-0 after Woodburn’s effort was saved, Sheyi Ojo added a fourth before Wilson struck again in the second half.
