The Reds hit the front early as newcomer Nyoni followed up his friendly heroics earlier this month with the opener at Brockhall. The 16-year-old joined from Leicester last month and is already settling in nicely to life in Liverpool’s academy. He made a dream start in his new surroundings by finding the net three times in a resounding 10-0 victory over Southend in pre-season. Blackburn’s deficit was doubled when Wellity Lucky headed home from a set-piece ball provided by Ben Trueman to see the Reds safely into the break at 2-0 Jayden Danns looked to have put the game beyond the hosts shortly before the hour mark, but quickfire goals from Matthew Litherland and Zack Stritch set up a tense end to the contest. Lucas Houghton looked to have completed the comeback with a late header of his own, only to be denied by the linesman’s offside flag. The Reds managed to hang on and the game was settled in the dying moments as Trent Kone-Doherty latched onto an Afolami Onanuga ball to put matters beyond doubt.
