Everton scored inside 60 seconds and, after Sebastian Quirk's breakthrough goal, showed their opponents no mercy. Tait's side was 5-0 up at half-time and — in front of Everton's former Sunderland goalkeeper Jordan Pickford, watching at USM Finch Farm — had doubled their tally by the final whistle. Tom Cannon promptly scored twice inside five minutes following the restart to add to his first-half double. Article continues below video content Lewis Warrington, Rhys Hughes from the spot and, in the final minute, Max Thompson completed the scoring. Quirk had earlier netted his second, while Tyler Onyango returned from England Under-17 duty with a ninth-minute strike. Scorers: Quirk (1', 35'), Onyango (9'), Cannon (16', 22', 47', 50'), Warrington (78'), Hughes (pen:88'), M Thompson (90).

Disclaimer Dave Abrahams 1 Posted 14/09/2019 at 14:26:17 Everton U18s are leading Sunderland U18s 8-0 with the goals coming from Cannon (4) and Quirk (2). Warrington came on as a sub and scored; Omagyo got the other. Still 10 minutes left to get into double figures, or is that being greedy? Jay Wood[BRZ] 2 Posted 14/09/2019 at 14:29:59 Are you there watching in person, Dave?The academy sides do seem to be running up a lot of high-scoring games across all age groups this season.Anything to read in the tea leaves of all that, Dave? Dave Abrahams 3 Posted 14/09/2019 at 14:32:11 Well, greedy or not, they got that double-figure score with goals from Max Thomson and Hughes with a penalty. I spelt Onyango’s name wrong above, sorry about that.Oh, and to make the day better, for me anyway, Man City U18s beat Liverpool U18s 5-2. Billy Roberts 4 Posted 14/09/2019 at 14:37:08 10-0 for the Under-18s? How good would you feel playing for Everton today!! Dave Abrahams 5 Posted 14/09/2019 at 14:37:12 Jay, no, not watching, getting the information from another Everton website.The tea leaves are saying look out for Tom Cannon, I don't think he has signed a full contract with The Blues yet, but is very well regarded. They play Sunderland again in a couple of weeks in the cup, not sure if it's the FA Youth Cup. Dave Abrahams 6 Posted 14/09/2019 at 14:41:29 Billy, I think some of the crowd were disappointed between the 50th. and 78th minute when we failed to score!!! Billy Roberts 7 Posted 14/09/2019 at 14:58:22 Dave,I hope they're all getting a bollocking for that slack spell, they could have let Sunderland right back in it!!Well done by the way Dave for following the youth teams and updating us all with scores, players development etc, you should be on the payroll! Steve Ferns 8 Posted 14/09/2019 at 17:46:09 Wow. Can’t wait to watch this one back. Kieran Kinsella 9 Posted 14/09/2019 at 19:05:18 Didn’t they just put 10 past WBA too? Paul Birmingham 10 Posted 14/09/2019 at 20:08:41 This is inspiration and hope for the Bournemouth game tomorrow. Something is clicking for the teams at Finch Farm.Let's hope the same tempo rubs off tomorrow on the south coast. Peter Gorman 11 Posted 14/09/2019 at 23:07:04 The Cannon ball kid! Phill Thompson 12 Posted 15/09/2019 at 09:53:35 The good thing this team is that there were 7 players 16 or under there, quite unusual so early in the season. 6 goals in four games for Tom Cannon so far, and overshadowing the highly rated Lewis Dobbin. And Cannon is a year younger than Simms was when he was scoring for fun so looks good. Onyango scoring regularly too from midfield, another to watch. Dave Abrahams 13 Posted 21/09/2019 at 13:26:18 The U18’s have won again today at Man.Unt. 3-2 with two goals from Tom Cannon and a header from Welch the very young full back.Cannon has scored eight in his last three games, Man City, the leaders got beat by Wolves2-1 so Everton are three points behind them with a game in hand.Quirk gave Tom Cannon a good assist for one of his goals.
