U21s Host Millwall - Ipswich Town News

Town’s U21s are in action against Millwall at Playford Road this afternoon (KO 1pm).

The side coached by John McGreal and David Wright are currently fourth in Professional Development League Two South with the Lions two points ahead of them in third but having played two fewer matches.

The team includes Alex Stepien-Iwumene, an 18-year-old central midfielder, who has been with Southampton.

Last Tuesday, the U21s beat Cambridge United 4-2 in a friendly at Playford Road.

Meanwhile, the U18s will play their Endeavour Automotive Suffolk Premier Cup semi-final against Needham Market at Hadleigh United’s Millfield on Wednesday 13th March.

U21s: Gray, Agbaje, Mazionis, O’Connor, H Barbrook (c), Carr, Stepien-Iwumene, Foyo, Roberts, Ayinde, Boatswain. Subs: Cullum, Jambang, Lavin, Taylor, Turner.
