Danny Ings is happy to be back in action for Liverpool.

One positive for Liverpool on an otherwise frustrating Carabao Cup night at Leicester City on Tuesday was the return to first-team action of Ings after an 11-month absence.

"It was mixed emotions really," he told Liverpoolfc.com. “You want to get the win and you want it to be the perfect night, getting minutes after the long road to recovery, but it wasn't our night in the end.

“But on a personal note, it's great to be back part of it, being around the lads and getting used to travelling away. It was good to be back and hopefully I can build on that."
