Brendan Rodgers admits that he is impressed with the impact of young striker Adam Morgan.

Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers has admitted that he was impressed with young striker Adam Morgan's performance against Toronto FC.

The 18-year-old scored in the pre-season friendly on Saturday after only arriving in Canada on the morning of the game.

Rodgers is pleased for Morgan and spoke highly of the young striker's qualities.

He told the club's official website: "He's a really, really good kid. He's come in, he's taken everything on board that I've talked about.

"He's got that natural instinct to score but I was also pleased with the cleverness in his pressing. He pressed the ball really well. That forced them into some mistakes.

"It was a great moment for him. His father flew in this morning from Liverpool, so to get here and to see the goal would have been a special moment."

Morgan will hope to get more playing time as Liverpool continue their pre-season tour of North America.
