Blackburn Rovers U18 1 - 3 Everton U18s

Everton U18s traveled to Brockhall where they beat Blackburn Rovers in the U18 Premier League North on Saturday morning.

This is only their 5th league game of the season, but they sit in mid-table, 7th out of 13 teams, despite losses to Manchester City and Nottingham Forest last month before most of them played in the Premier League U17 Next Generation Cup in Tamworth.  

Leighton Baines has thus far been relying on a core of around 15 regulars as he looks to improve on last season's poor showing at this level:

 Doug Lukjanciks
 Aled Thomas
 Josh van Schoor
 George Finney
 Rocco Lambert
 Braiden Graham
 Harvey Foster
 Kean  Wren
 Luis Gardner
 Ceiran Loney
 Joel Catesby
 Charlie Stewart
 Melvin Matos
 Luca Davis
 Demi Akarakiri

The Young Blues stormed into an early lead through Justin Clarke with goals added from Braiden Graham and George Morgan before the break. 

That's the way it stayed until the last minutes when a Blackburn player was shown the red card, and soon after, they scored a consolation goal. 

Everton U18s: Lukjanciks, Davis, Gardner, van Schoor, Finney (83' Poland), Morgan (83' Stewart), Matos (77' Akarakiri), Lambert, Graham, Loney, Clarke (70' Wren).

Subs not Used: Patrick.

Yes, I should have added him, Dave, as he's in the team today and well on his way to becoming a core regular, with the opening goal!

But there's a new name for you to get me the skinny on: Patrick (Goalkeeper?)?

3-0 now with goals from Graham, getting plenty of notice this kid and not just from Everton fans, and Morgan.

I haven't been able to discover the surname of the Everton U18s' sub goalie today.

He is possibly Irish though going by his Christian name — Patrick!!

Was the sub goalie a big blonde lad?

Think that's Adam Seve who i think came from Oldham
