U18s Draw Everton Away in FA Youth Cup - Ipswich Town News

Town’s U18s have drawn Everton away in the third round of the FA Youth Cup.

The tie is likely to be played at Goodison Park - the Toffeemen staged last year’s third round tie there - with the match played on a date yet to be set before Saturday 16th December.
