Lower Breck 1 - 2 Everton U21s
Everton U21s come back from a goal behind to secure semi-final spot in this season's Liverpool Senior Cup at Lower Breck on Wednesday night at Anfield Sports & Community Centre.
Lower Breck of the Northern Premier League took the lead in this quarter-final just before the half-time break and it looked like that would be enough until a remarkable late turnaround.
It was not until added time at the end that Malik Olayiwola broke through the home ranks in the 92nd minute and played a one-two with Kingsford Boakye before drilling an excellent low shot into the home goal.
The Lower Breck keeper then totally blotted his copybook when he somehow allowed Braiden Graham to reach a long forward ball before him. It was a howler and Graham couldn’t believe his luck as he simply rolled the ball into an empty net to give the Young Blues a remarkable late turnaround win.
Everton U21s: Lukjanciks, Davis, Thomas, Welch, Moonan, Akarkiri, Pita, Gomez, Ebere, Olayiwola, Loney.
Subs: Patrick, Samuels-Smith, Van Schoor, (Bates) Beaumont-Clark, (Graham) (Boakye).

One of the biggest attendances was when Ian Saint John made his debut for Liverpool at Goodison and scored a hat trick although we won the cup 4-3.
So the Liverpool Senior Cup is not regarded very much even the Cup itself is a much better looking than the FA cup or it was - a big golden trophy.

For some reason, these local competitions hardly register -- despite it being one of the oldest competitions Everton have played in -- the one they have won more than any other!
That's including a 4-1 win in last season's final over the same opposition, Lower Breck.
