Under-16s champions Saint Mary’s

Triumphant teams United in cup glory

SCORES of budding young footballers brought Market Road to a standstill on Wednesday when they turned out for the grand finals of the Camden Unity Cup.
There were thrills and spills as ­players battled it out for glory across three age categories at the Islington-based Astroturf pitches.
In the boys’ under-14s final, ­Edmonton All Saints overcame AFC Camden courtesy of the dreaded penalty shoot-out. Having remained tied at 1-1 following extra-time, Edmonton goalkeeper Mark Blair saved brilliantly from the spot to seal a thrilling victory.
Ingestre FC also had to keep their nerve from the spot to clinch the under-18s trophy, while in the under-16s competition, St Mary’s recorded the most convincing win when they ran out 3-0 winners against Queen’s Crescent.
