Liverpool salvaged a point against League Two side Harrogate Town thanks to a Norris goal in the second half which may have saved the Reds from being knocked out of the competition.

Trent Kone-Doherty placed a perfect pass to Norris who fired in his first goal of the competition with a low shot into the bottom right corner.
