U18s Lose at Chelsea - Ipswich Town News
Town’s U18s ended their FA Premier Academy League season with a 4-0 defeat at Chelsea on Saturday morning.
The Blues youngsters were a touch unlucky to fall to such a heavy defeat having had four decent opportunities prior to the home side netting two goals in either half. Adam Philip and Nathaniel Chalobah scored in the first half and Daniel Philliskirk and Todd Kane in the second.
The youngsters will finish sixth, seventh or eighth in their FA Premier Academy League group depending on the other results in the final round of matches.
U18s: McLoughlin, Bennett, Dunbar (Wright 46), McKeown, Eastman, Hyam, Carson, Brandon, Griffiths (Jones 77), Clark. Lavery.
