Purps come from behind to win 3-1
[Michael Meadows]

CITY of Liverpool FC made it two wins out of two in pre-season on Saturday, overcoming having a man sent off to beat Warrington Rylands 3-1.

The Purps went a goal behind but drew level through Elliott Nevitt, who capitalised on a poor defensive header from Rylands’ centre back to tuck home.

Playing away from home, manager Craig Robinson made a host of changes at the break, including the kit, but found themselves down to 10 men when Jay Jeffries was sent off following an off the ball incident.
