Everton U21s 2 – 1 Monaco U21s
Everton U21s pulled off an excellent win over Monaco U21s at Goodison Park in the Premier League International Cup on Friday night, the second fine comeback win in the space of 5 days after they beat PSV Eindhoven on Monday.
The lesser spotted Harry Tyrer made a rare appearance in goal for Everton, possibly his first this season; he did not go out on loan.
The Young Blues pulled back level in added time before the break after going behind 10 minutes earlier, Will Tamen getting the goal off a great strike from just inside the area through a couple of defenders to make it 1 – 1 at half-time.
It looked like it would end up that way but George Morgan came off the bench with 2 minutes left and he was there at the far post to nod down a great chipped cross from an earlier sub, Shea Pita, and it bounced into the roof of the Monaco net, a super winner!
Everton U21s: Tyrer, Davis, van Schoor, Tamen, Thomas, Foster (64′ Ebere), Boakye (74′ Akarakiri), Bates, Benjamin (74′ Pita), Olayiwola (88′ Morgan), Graham.
Subs not Used: G Pickford, Loney.
