Watch the highlights from Liverpool's pre-season win at Tranmere, where Danny Ings scored in a 1-0 victory.

The 23-year-old, who missed a large part of last season with a cruciate ligament injury, came off the bench at half-time as one of 11 changes made Jurgen Klopp to break the deadlock.

It was only Ings' second taste of senior football since returning from injury, having played 25 minutes of Liverpool's final-day draw at West Brom in May.

On a day when Jurgen Klopp signed a new long-term contract at the club, the Liverpool boss handed debuts to three of his summer signings with goalkeeper Loris Karius, defender Joel Matip and £36m signing Sadio Mane in the starting line-up.

Liverpool made the breakthrough with 11 minutes remaining as Trent Alexander-Arnold released Ings following a superb run from the youngster, and the striker made no mistake, powering the ball past Turner at his near post to hand Klopp's side an opening pre-season victory.
