U18s beat Arsenal 3-1 at Anfield to reach Youth Cup semi-final

Liverpool U18s moved into the FA Youth Cup semi-finals with an impressive 3-1 win over Arsenal at Anfield on Friday night.

First-half goals from Max Woltman and James Norris – the latter from the penalty spot – established a lead that was increased by Mateusz Musialowski’s cool finish at the Kop end after the break.

Miguel Azeez responded for the Gunners with a penalty and forced the Reds to withstand late pressure, which they did successfully to book their place in the last four.

Marc Bridge-Wilkinson’s side will now face Ipswich Town away from home in the semi-finals next month as they continue their quest for the club’s fifth triumph in the prestigious tournament.
