​Liverpool youngster Grujic features in Serbia draw

Liverpool youngster Marko Grujic received game time for the Serbian national team during their 1-1 draw against South Korea on Tuesday.

Grujic was handed a start during the game and in the process won his fourth international cap.

He was eventually replaced by Aleksandar Kolarov at half-time.

Grujic will make a return to Liverpool's Melwood training base later on this week ahead of the Reds Premier League game against Southampton on Saturday.

21-year-old Grujic meanwhile, has made five appearances for the Liverpool first-team this season, as well as four for the reserves side.

He will be looking to make an impression whenever called upon by Jurgen Klopp for first team duty in order to try and prove that he has what it takes to succeed at the highest level.

With Serbia having qualified for the 2018 World Cup, he will have to work hard to try and make his country's squad for the event.
