(Reuters) - Teenaged striker Ben Woodburn has been left out of Liverpool's squad for the Champions League group game against Spartak Moscow on Tuesday despite his heroics for Wales. The 17-year-old, who scored on his international debut to give Wales a World Cup qualifying win over Austria this month, remained with Liverpool's under-19 squad while the 20-man senior squad prepared to fly to Russia on Monday. Long-term absentees Nathaniel Clyne and Adam Lallana also stayed at home but centre backs Joel Matip and Dejan Lovren are included after playing in Saturday's 3-2 Premier League win over Leicester City with no problems. Liverpool trained at their Melwood complex on Monday ahead of a lunchtime flight to Russia. Juergen Klopp's side drew their opening Champions League Group E game 2-2 with Sevilla.
