- Liverpool's goal: "Roberts was dangerous in the opening stages but then Liverpool mounted an attack on the right and Checkland, after a neat passing movement with Forshaw, slipped the ball through to Beadles, who scored with a low shot."
- "Lucas was undeniably the best player on the field and Beadles had a fine game at centre-forward, but the loss of a point saw the Reds slip to fifth place."
