A late goal condemned Liverpool Reserves to an undeserved 1-0 defeat against Bayern Munich in the RUHR.2010 Cup in Germany on Friday night.
The inexperienced Reds dominated their illustrious opponents but fell to a solitary goal seven minutes from time.
A win against AC Milan on Saturday would still see them progress from the group - as could a draw if other results are favourable.
Gaffer John McMahon said: "We dominated Bayern. I'd say we had six really good chances to their two, but we were beaten by a sucker punch near the end.
"The positives are that we're one of the youngest teams here, but looking around I'd say we are one of the best.
"It's also great experience for this young team because they are playing against different types of football teams and different cultures."
The Reserves won their first game of the U19 tournament against Schalke 1-0 thanks to a Daniel Ayala header.
