A number of Liverpool fans have taken to Twitter to comment on Tyler Morton after the youngster’s Champions League display against AC Milan on Tuesday.

Jurgen Klopp’s side ended the group-stages with their six win in six. Mohamed Salah cancelled out Fikayo Tomori’s opener in the first-half inside San Siro. Divock Origi headed home the winner after the break.

It was an impressive showing from Liverpool, with Klopp making several changes once again. Milan meanwhile, knew that only a win would give them a chance of reaching the knockout stages.

And one of those to come in was Morton. The 19-year-old made his European debut in the win over Porto on the previous match day.

Klopp praised his performance against the Portuguese side. But he appeared to take his game to another level against the Rossoneri.

Liverpool’s midfield was involved in a battle with the likes of Sandro Tonali, Brahim Diaz and Franck Kessié. The latter name, of course, has been linked with a move to Merseyside in recent times.

Kessie is unquestionably a superb talent. But he was given little to smile about against the Reds – and that was largely down to the performance of Morton.
