Teenager Ngumoha Matches Michael Owen’s Liverpool Record in Villa Clash

Rio Ngumoha matched Michael Owen’s Liverpool record in Friday’s Premier League defeat to Aston Villa. The 17-year-old has become the joint-youngest Liverpool player to reach 18 Premier League appearances, equalling Owen’s feat. He already holds the record as Liverpool’s youngest scorer after his winning goal at Newcastle earlier in the season. Despite starting only four times, his performances have stood out. Ngumoha can break Owen’s record in the final match as Liverpool chase a Champions League spot. The loss leaves Liverpool fifth on 59 points.
