The Reds lost out in the tie and took a 2-1 defeat, though all attention during the game was focused on a horrendous challenge by Joris Gnagnon on Liverpool youngster Yasser Larouci.

Milner himself labelled Gnagnon ‘a disgrace’ after the match, with the defender then going on to issue a public apology for his actions online.

The Reds return to action on Thursday, when they face Sporting Lisbon inside the Yankee Stadium.
