Albion youngster grabs golden boot

YOUNG Albion starlet Louie Barry has returned from a prestigious UEFA tournament with the golden boot.

The 15-year-old striker netted three goals to help England Under-16s lift the Val-de-Marne - beating Austria 4-2, Japan 3-1, and hosts France 3-1, in the process.

“It was the best experience I’ve had in football and one that I’ll remember for a long time,” said the Bishop Walsh Catholic School pupil.

“I’ve been lucky enough to have had other great experiences but as this was a UEFA tournament it’s my proudest moment so far.

“I know there is a lot of hard work to come but I’m really enjoying my football at the moment.
