Clarets Earn Toffees Tie

FA Youth Cup Fourth Round

The FA Youth Cup Fourth Round draw has now been finalised and features no fewer than 17 previous winners.

Last night Cup fever continued in Burnley, as the Clarets secured their place in the fourth round with an impressive victory against West Bromwich Albion at Turf Moor.

Three goals in 11 minutes early in the second half sealed a home tie with Everton who knocked Nantwich Town out of the competition.

Walsall’s reward for their success in the last round will be a trip to play London glamour boys Chelsea while three other ties will also be played in the capital with Arsenal (v Wolverhampton Wanderers), Queens Park Rangers (v Newcastle United) and Charlton Athletic (v Tottenham Hotspur) also being drawn at home.

Elsewhere Preston North End will hope to make home advantage pay when they take on Sunderland and Tranmere Rovers will hope to return from their trip to South Wales having secured a place in the last 16 at the expense of Cardiff City.
