Michael Kenrick , 21 July, 5comments | Jump to most recent

Everton's reserves made their way into the final of ARR Craib Cup tomorrow after beating Airdrie United 2-1 this afternoon with goals from Barkley and Garbutt. The Blues are joined in the four-team tournament by a Celtic XI who were beaten 2-0 by hosts Partick Thistle.

Everton will therefore play Partick Thistle in final on Sunday, kick-off is 2:45 pm at Firhill.

Some match highlights from Twitter:

Everton: Tadul; Browning, Garbutt, Lundstram, Hammar; Bidwell, Green, Barkley; McAleny, Hope, Grant. Subs: Springthorpe, Touray, Long, Jones, Forrester.

12mins: Green drills low shot just wide.

52 mins: Arthur saves well from Lundstram. Good footwork then by Green but he shoots over.

56 mins: Great play by Hope with Barkley running on to his pass and slotting home: 0-1

62 mins: Lovely free-kick in off the bar from the edge of the box by Garbutt after Griffin handball: 0-2

70 mins: Tadul makes a great save from fantastic MacDonald strike.

Penalty to Airdrie. Bain goes down under Garbutt's challenge after a lovely pass by Di Giacomo who fires home the spot-kick: 1-2.

Barkley seems to be playing a lot of football recently. England u19, EFC 1st team, EFC reserves. Hope he doesn't burn out or get injured.

Let me ask. I remember reading last year of one of our youth players. He was being recognized for something good. What stood out was the mention of how diminutive he was. In the accompanying photo, he did look like a 12-year-old. I believe he was in the U-17s at the time.

Who is that youngster? I'd like to follow how he's doing.

I am also informed by my source at Partick Thistle today that our 'keeper Taudal? head-butted one of his centre-halves for conceding a corner at the Everton v Airdrie Utd game this afternoon..??!! Garbutt and Hammar looked promising for our XI and Barkley was a bit disappointing. More as it comes in...

After watching England U19 in the Euro tournament recently, besides Garbutt, & Barkley, the lad Lundstram stood out in midfield. Three good lads for the future.
