Mascherano backs Ngog to shine

Argentine ace Javier Mascherano has backed team-mate David Ngog to shine for Liverpool.

The French striker scored his first league goal of the season in the 2-0 win over Sunderland on Tuesday.

He said: “It was very important for David to score because he is a young player and this goal will give him more confidence.

“You can see in every training session that he is working very hard.

“When he is given his chance in the team he has to try and take it and by scoring a goal and doing a good job for the team.

“He can be happy with his performance.

“It is really good for him and I am very happy for him because he deserved his goal.”
