U16 Boys Make National Final!

Merseyside progress through to the inter-county national cup final!

It was an exciting edition of Monday night football as Merseyside u16 boys travelled to the Tiger Turf Stadium to take on Gloucestershire in the semi-final of the national cup competition.

An exciting game finished 1-0 to the Merseysiders with the decider being scored by George Murray after he bundled the ball home from a corner with 25 minutes to go. Managers Paul Bell and Alan Greaves were rightly proud of the team who dug deep and showed great character to hold on despite being reduced to 10 men earlier in the game.

Our thanks go out to Gloucestershire County Schools FA for their hospitality.

Merseyside will now face the winners of Sussex and Berkshire in the final in the spring.
