April 14th, 2009 by NoelWarham| Date: | Tuesday 7th April 2009 |
| Location: | Carr Lane, Birkdale |
| Result: | Birkdale R (1) Birkdale S (2) |
This was a night time ko between the two Birkdale Under 9 teams. Birkdale S struggled to get any rhythm going and were getting frustrated as nothing was going their way in the game. It was a fast game with both teams having chances but Huyton in goal for Birkdale S was on form and the first half ended 0-0.
The second have was just as the first until Welford put Birkdale S 1-0 up after he beat his two markers.
Birkdale D fought back with Birkdale S giving the ball away too easily in midfield and they were punished with a great strike from Birkdale R.
However, as ever Birkdale S carried on fighting for the winner and with three minutes left the ball fell to Welford again in the box and he fired Birkdale S to a 2-1 win.
