Liverpool made it two wins out of two under Andoni Iraola with a low-key victory over Wrexham at the Yankee Stadium in New York.It was another good run-out for the Reds, and Iraola will be pleased to have picked up the win, but it was not an overly convincing display from his team.Here’s how we rated the players from a forgettable display which Liverpool won via a deflected Rio Ngumoha effort. Harvey Elliott: 5 – Liverpool’s best player during the early exchanges, with one beautifully weighted through ball for Josh Abe a real highlight.
AttackJosh Abe: 4 – Should arguably have done better when put through early on by Elliott, but couldn’t get the shot away. Will have wanted more from his 45 minute showing.Lewis Koumas: 4 – Koumas worked hard and tried his best to get Liverpool into good positions, and flashed a decent shot wide early on.

Did manage to force a goal after getting a little luck with a deflection, so still managed to have an impact despite a poor overall displayJeremie Frimpong: 5 – Did some decent defensive work and supported Ngumoha well on the right.Will Wright: 4 – Couldn’t get into the game at all, in a repeat of his performance in Nashville.
