By Total Football News

It’s no secret that Liverpool are admirers of Yan Diomande and the 19-year-old winger made a brilliant start to the World Cup with a player-of-the-match display for Ivory Coast in their 1-0 win over Ecuador.

Diomande, who plays club football in Germany for RB Leipzig, started for his country and spent time on each flank during the 90 minutes, constantly asking questions of the Ecuador defence.

Eleven minutes into the final game of last season, Millwall were sitting pretty in the top six with a 1-0 lead away at already-promoted Burnley thanks to Mihailo Ivanovic’s early goal.

It means teams finishing from third to eighth will compete for promotion to the Premier League.

Clubs finishing third and fourth will progress directly to the semi-final, while a one-legged quarter final will

The quarter-finals, or eliminator round, would feature one-legged ties, with fifth hosting eighth and sixth at home to seventh.

The final would still take place at Wembley at the end of May.

The change has been approved by the EFL board and the Football Association.

It requires a majority of clubs in
