Liverpool's David Raven scored the winner as Liverpool Reserves produced a superb performance to come back from 2-0 down to beat Bolton Wanderers 3-2 at Leyland last night.
Raven scored five minutes from time with a superb low drilled effort to give a young Liverpool team a deserved win.
Two goals in two minutes looked to have put Bolton into the driving seat. First Jaraslaw Fojut pounced on a low cross to make it 1-0 then two minutes later a slip by 17-year-old centre half Miki Roque let in the experienced Jared Borgetti who produced a deadly finish to make it 2-0.
It was 2-1 after 43 minutes when Hammill played in Idrizaj down the left. The Austrian produced a superb cross met by a header from Guthrie into the back of the net.
On 75 minutes Liverpool levelled when Mannix curled an absolute pearler of a free-kick into the top corner of the net.
The winner came when Guthrie's probing created the chance, Hammill was denied by Howarth, but Raven pounced and drilled home the winner.
Howarth, Powell, Whitehead (Sissons 45), Stott, Fojut, Ellis, O'Brien, Nakata (Roddy 45), Sinclair, Buval, Borgetti (Smith 45).
