This goal allowed the Reds to have a much better period in the match.

James McConnell found the signature and fired a dangerous cross in front of goal, while Corness fired a low volley which Lykke palmed away after pushing away a cross from Jayden Danns.

Hall did well to turn away a low free-kick after Mabaya was found guilty of a foul just on the edge of the penalty area before a fine point from Chiesa put him past at least three players, although his cross was blocked before it reached the danger zone of the penalty area.

The Danes took the lead again just after the hour mark after a brutal break from a Liverpool corner. They won a corner themselves and Erik Marxen was there to head home past Hall

.

Kyle Kelly had replaced Chiesa and almost brought Liverpool level when flying just over a deep cross from Kone-Doherty.

But it was the visitors who increased their lead through the dangerous Hansen, who fired home a left-footed shot following a good team move.

Lewtas' side were not ready to give up despite the poor conditions and an error from goalkeeper Lykke gave them a lifeline with 20 minutes remaining.

His weak clearance only went to Corness, who had enough power on his strike to bring the Reds to within a point.

With seven minutes to go, Kone-Doherty took a nice pass from Corness, crashed into his defender and beat Lykke.

It looked like only one team would win. But when the Reds failed to clear the ball in their penalty area, Berthelsen was replaced by Berthelsen to give the Danes a

Spectacular winning goal.
