Everton U21s lost to AC Milan in Premier League International Cup

Everton U21s 1 - 2 AC Milan U21s

Back to the football and Everton U21s take on AC Milan in the Premier League International Cup at Goodison Park on Wednesday night.

New signing for the Under-21s, Ezra Carrington goes straight into the starting line-up for Dave Hughes's side, with an otherwise familiar look to it. 

Everton went behind in the first half after George Pickford had saved a shot with his body but the rebound was driven in.

After hitting the bar, Braiden Graham (57') drove in a superb free-kick from 265 25 yards out, curling it around the wall and just inside the post to put Everton back in the game. 

But 20 minutes later, a poor giveaway in midfield allowed Milan to attack with pace and the ball was fired past Pickford for what would be the winner.

Everton U21s: G Pickford, Finney, Carrington (63' Van Schoor), Gardner, Thomas, Foster [Y:66'], Moses (46' Matos), J Patterson [Y:80'] (82' Aduda), Loney [Y:50'] (82' Benjamin), Brookes (63' Lambert), Graham.

Subs not Used: Barnsley, Evans.
