Will Wright produced a moment of magic to keep Liverpool’s under-21s alive in their Jersey Mike’s Trophy clash against Rochdale on Tuesday night. After a dramatic evening at the Crown Oil Arena, the young Reds found themselves up against it following a red card for Mor Talla Ndiaye.
Rochdale capitalised on the numerical advantage when Devante Rodney put the hosts in front. But Wright had other ideas, levelling the score with a phenomenal solo effort that proved the standout moment of a night full of incident.
The performance underlined the quality within Liverpool’s academy ranks, with Wright’s composure and technique drawing praise from observers.
