Ben Woodburn became Liverpool’s youngest ever goalscorer

Liverpool reached the League Cup semi-finals as 17-year-old Ben Woodburn enjoyed a night to remember by becoming the club's youngest ever goalscorer when he wrapped up a 2-0 victory over Leeds United on Tuesday.

Divock Origi slid home the opening goal after 76 minutes and Woodburn, making his debut in the competition as a late substitute, volleyed powerfully into the net from close range in front of the Kop in the 81st minute.

At 17 years and 45 days, Woodburn erased Michael Owen from the Liverpool record books and created history. Liverpool fans went crazy praising the talented youngster on Twitter. Here are the best tweets and GIFS from last night’s match:
