Ovie Ejaria put in another bright display for Liverpool in their latest pre-season friendly against Huddersfield Town.
His teammate Marko Grujic took the plaudits after scoring his second goal in as many games to put the Reds 1-0 up, but it was the unheralded Ejaria who caught the eye early on.

The former Arsenal trainee has made an impression during pre-season so far, picked regularly by Jurgen Klopp.
With an imposing frame and deft touch, the 18-year-old has real potential and has put himself in the frame to earn a place on Liverpool’s upcoming US tour.
It is unclear if Ejaria will play any kind of role this upcoming season for the Reds, but he has certainly done himself a few favours over the past fortnight.
He was not the only youngster to impress last night, with Ryan Kent and Ben Woodburn also in action, while new signing Loris Karius once again started in goal.
