Liverpool Finally Beat Man City as they Win FA Cup
Liverpool Beat Man City to Win FA Youth Cup
Steven Gerrard's cousin - Bobby Duncan - scored as Liverpool won the FA Youth Cup on penalties against Manchester City.
A Nabil Touaizi goal on the stroke of half-time gave City the lead, but Liverpool struck back late on through Duncan - to take an evenly-matched contest to extra-time and penalties for just the third time in the history of the competition.
Cole Palmer smacked City's second penalty against the crossbar while every other taker scored, with Paul Glatzel thumping home the decisive spot-kick to record a 5-3 victory in the shootout.
Spanish striker Touaizi, 18, joined City's youth ranks from Valencia in 2017 and has managed 11 goals from 23 appearances in all competitions.
However, his strike was cancelled out by the Reds' own young forward as City goalkeeper Louie Moulden produced a howler to allow 17-year-old Duncan's late effort to slip through his fingers and force the game to extra-time.
The game which later reached on penalties was Man city miss through the woodwork, before liverpool young captain slashed the final spotkick which was Liverpool young team crowned the winner of the youth FA Cup.
