Layton Stewart returned to action for Liverpool U23s in Sunday's victory over West Ham.

Liverpool U23s produced a dominant performance to beat West Ham United 3-0 at the Academy on Sunday afternoon.

Second-half goals from Jack Bearne, Tyler Morton and Tom Clayton earned a comprehensive Premier League 2 victory for Barry Lewtas' side.

There was further reason for cheer with the return of Stewart, who came off the bench with around half an hour to play – the striker's first match action since sustaining an ACL injury some 13 months ago.

Stewart nearly marked his return in perfect fashion, only for his shot to be cleared off the line following brilliant work by Owen Beck down the left.


Liverpool U23s: Pitaluga, Bradley, Williams, Quansah, Beck, Clayton (Corness, 82), Clarkson, Morton, Norris, Bearne (Woltman, 80), Musialowski (Stewart, 63).

Unused subs: Kelly, Koumetio.
