Before Ngumoha struck a first goal for the club in the win at Newcastle, Woodburn held the record as Liverpool's youngest scorer at 17 years and 45 days in November 2016. Ngumoha now holds the record, having scored at 16 years and 361 days.
"I didn’t love it," Woodburn told the Manchester Evening News when asked about losing his record. "But I was really happy for him. For me, I kind of felt in the moment that (the record) didn’t really matter, I probably didn’t realise how big it was at the time, so I’d imagine he’s the same.
"He’s probably just loving playing his football, he’s played since and he’s been great every time he’s played for Liverpool, so I’m sure he’ll be fine.
"Liverpool have just signed (Alexander) Isak and (Hugo) Ekitike for over £80million each. It’s so difficult for a 17-year-old lad to play, but I was surprised how many games he’s played already.
"To me he looks like he could be one of the best wingers in the world at one point, so hopefully he can kick on and do that."
