KAIDE Gordon continued his impressive form with two goals as Liverpool came from behind to earn a penalty shootout triumph at Chesterfield despite slipping out of the EFL Trophy.

Gordon netted twice in the final 15 minutes to earn the Reds under-21s side a 2-2 draw at the SMH Group Stadium on Tuesday night before the visitors triumphed 11-10 after a mammoth series of spot-kicks to take the bonus point.

Rob Page's side needed to win in normal time to have a chance of going through to the knockout stages following earlier defeats at Burton Albion and Crewe Alexandra.
