Summer signing Ben Doak was again impressive for Liverpool in today's UEFA Youth League win at Napoli.

Doak continued the excellent start to his Liverpool career by inspiring a winning UYL start in Italy.

Doak, the 16-year-old £600,000 summer signing from Celtic, opened the scoring and laid on the winner for Oakley Cannonier as the Reds earned a 2-1 triumph against Napoli at the Stadio Giuseppe Piccolo in Cercola on Wednesday afternoon.

The winger was impressive throughout as a Liverpool U19s side, helmed by Barry Lewtas, coped well with the baking conditions to join Ajax, who beat Rangers 2-1, as early leaders in Group A.

They are next in UEFA Youth League action on Tuesday when they entertain Ajax at the Academy in Kirkby,

LIVERPOOL (4-3-3): Davies; Mabaya, Quansah, Jonas, Chambers; Corness, McConnell, Frauendorf; Doak (Miles 90+3), Cannonier (Koumas 70), Kone-Doherty (Young 88). Subs: Hewitson, Onanuga, Osborne, Pennington. BOOKINGS: Quansah, Davies, Young
