:00:00. > :00:00.Hello and welcome to this very special edition of
:00:00. > :00:12.We're here at the home of Everton Football Club, Goodison Park.
:00:13. > :00:16.In just a few minutes time, over 300 of the UK's best players
:00:17. > :00:19.will be coming out of that tunnel to represent their
:00:20. > :00:23.At the start of the season, over 1700 schools
:00:24. > :00:31.We will be following two tournaments, the under 11 mixed,
:00:32. > :00:37.So without further ado, Lozza, we're at Goodison Park,
:00:38. > :00:39.Premier League football club, Everton FC, how can
:00:40. > :00:41.Go on.
:00:42. > :01:16.They must just feel like proper Premier League players.
:01:17. > :01:22.Not only that, the ground's incredible, the pitch is incredible,
:01:23. > :01:23.the weather is great, and they've even got
:01:24. > :01:27.from somebody who knows this ground very well.
:01:28. > :01:43.I'd like to wish everyone the best of luck today.
:01:44. > :01:46.Hope you have a great tournament, and, of course, play fairly
:01:47. > :01:50.and play well. Good luck, everyone.
:01:51. > :01:53.So, after all the fanfare of a real Premier League match, it's time
:01:54. > :01:57.And there are some great players on show.
:01:58. > :01:59.The two Everton teams have home advantage and both have
:02:00. > :02:03.I've found that player who hopes he's a cut above the rest.
:02:04. > :02:12.We've played our first game and won 2-0.
:02:13. > :02:15.Got a little bit of Marouane Fellaini going on,
:02:16. > :02:19.Well, he don't play for Everton no more, so...
:02:20. > :02:23.I haven't been to the barbers for quite a while now, so, maybe,
:02:24. > :02:25.like, a month or two, I don't know!
:02:26. > :02:34.What about the rest of your team-mates?
:02:35. > :02:40.I reckon you'll be able to put aside your differences
:02:41. > :02:50.I'm with Andre Marriner, Premier League referee.
:02:51. > :02:52.What is it like being here at a ground you have
:02:53. > :02:55.refereed at so many times, but doing it the kids?
:02:56. > :03:01.The kids, this is their cup final, so, you need to take it
:03:02. > :03:05.But there's that element of having fun, as well.
:03:06. > :03:11.Do you think there's a chance that one of the kids playing here today
:03:12. > :03:14.will be in one of the games that you're refereeing
:03:15. > :03:17.If they grow up quick enough, then yeah!
:03:18. > :03:19.Listen, you've got plenty of years left in you.
:03:20. > :03:23.Thanks so much, Andre, and it's great to see you.
:03:24. > :03:26.Spurs v Arsenal has just finished over here.
:03:27. > :03:28.Massive London derby, as it always is.
:03:29. > :03:32.And number 17 has scored three goals in two games.
:03:33. > :03:35.His name's David and, for me, Spurs are a big
:03:36. > :03:39.So, a great win for Spurs, but a great performance
:03:40. > :03:45.We have already met a Fellaini lookalike, and Hettie is drawing
:03:46. > :03:49.comparisons with another Premier League star.
:03:50. > :03:52.All my friends are calling me, like Jamelia Vardy or something.
:03:53. > :03:57.How are you finding it here today? Is it hindering you in any way?
:03:58. > :04:00.No, it's just to support it, and I feel better when I'm
:04:01. > :04:03.Well, good luck for the rest of the day.
:04:04. > :04:09.And that you can pull a few goals back.
:04:10. > :04:11.So, we've come to watch my beloved West Ham
:04:12. > :04:18.Guess who Lauren thinks is going to win?
:04:19. > :04:19.Watford. Just to get at me.
:04:20. > :04:24.Come on, West Ham!
:04:25. > :04:39.You don't even support Watford, so why are you cheering for them?
:04:40. > :04:50.Just because you're wearing a yellow hat.
:04:51. > :04:52.The two teams representing Leicester can take some inspiration
:04:53. > :04:57.from the Premier League champions this year.
:04:58. > :05:00.And, as a special treat, the actual trophy lifted
:05:01. > :05:05.by the Foxes has come along for the day.
:05:06. > :05:07.Here are the under-13 girls smiling away.
:05:08. > :05:12.Let's have a look to see how their under-11s
:05:13. > :05:29.Chance, chance, oh!
:05:30. > :05:43.Just look at that.
:05:44. > :05:54.That win for Swansea means they top their group and they're
:05:55. > :05:56.the first team through to the semifinals.
:05:57. > :05:58.They will face Everton, who topped Group B,
:05:59. > :06:04.Tottenham are also through to the next round, and will face fellow
:06:05. > :06:11.In the under-13 tournament, Aston Villa managed to get
:06:12. > :06:16.through a very tight group for a place in the semis,
:06:17. > :06:18.and they'll be up against the other Everton.
:06:19. > :06:20.Local rivals Newcastle and Sunderland will face up
:06:21. > :06:24.in a mouthwatering clash with a place in the final at stake.
:06:25. > :06:27.Congratulations to Bournemouth forward Cole, who was the top scorer
:06:28. > :06:33.And Watford's Griva who bagged the most
:06:34. > :06:41.And in the under 11s, Crystal Palace got
:06:42. > :06:45.through after a hard- fought 2-0 win against Tottenham.
:06:46. > :06:47.Rushton and Warne with the goals for the Eagles.
:06:48. > :06:50.Meanwhile, Everton made a great start to their semifinal and went
:06:51. > :06:54.But the Welsh side never gave up and ended up going through
:06:55. > :07:02.In the girls' under-13s it was better news for Everton, who went
:07:03. > :07:04.through after a resounding 4-0 victory over Aston Villa.
:07:05. > :07:07.Their opponents in the final will be Sunderland, who beat local
:07:08. > :07:17.So we have the first final of the day, and it's hosts Everton
:07:18. > :07:19.v Sunderland in the under-13 girls.
:07:20. > :07:21.And they'll be hoping to take home this mini
:07:22. > :07:24.It's Mike Jones, Premier League referee, who is leading them out.
:07:25. > :07:30.But for now, it's over to Match of the Day commentator
:07:31. > :07:32.The survival of Sunderland's senior men's team from Premier League
:07:33. > :07:35.relegation came at the expense of Newcastle.
:07:36. > :07:38.And here at the Premier League schools tournament, the Sunderland
:07:39. > :07:41.under-13 girls also saw off their local rivals in the semis
:07:42. > :07:47.As for Everton, they've excelled at their home stadium so far.
:07:48. > :07:52.And they line up with Finn in goal, the youngest player in the squad.
:07:53. > :07:57.Captain Instone, who isn't afraid of unleashing a powerful shot,
:07:58. > :08:00.Then Beeley is a lively winger alongside the tricky
:08:01. > :08:03.Upfront, it is Bailey, who has played in every
:08:04. > :08:05.position in this tournament, and grabbed a hat-trick in
:08:06. > :08:12.Whittle and Taylor start on the bench.
:08:13. > :08:19.She loves to start quick attacks from the back.
:08:20. > :08:24.There's the tough tackling duo of Jackson and Brown.
:08:25. > :08:27.In midfield, Gilfoyle is partnered by McQuade, who's got a rocket
:08:28. > :08:31.of a shot, and can create something out of nothing,
:08:32. > :08:34.whilst Whittle is a tough striker who wears her heart on her sleeve.
:08:35. > :08:37.Kuruku and James are ready to be sprung from the bench is needed.
:08:38. > :08:40.So, under way for this final at Goodison Park.
:08:41. > :08:43.For Sunderland, some early pressing from the captain, McQuade.
:08:44. > :08:46.Everton, comfortable on the ball, as they have been right the way
:08:47. > :08:50.This is Beeley trying to get into the penalty area.
:08:51. > :08:59.And it's a nice build-up that results in the shot
:09:00. > :09:08.The first attempted angle of this final.
:09:09. > :09:10.It's been a tense start, two evenly matched teams.
:09:11. > :09:12.And Sunderland with the throw-in, looking for the height of McQuade.
:09:13. > :09:19.Good first touch from Whittle, but tight defending by Waite.
:09:20. > :09:28.That forces it out for a corner. Jackson, preparing to swing it then.
:09:29. > :09:35.Into the penalty area. Another chance for Jackson. Another testing
:09:36. > :09:40.cross. This is Whittle, and it is in! Agonisingly past the Everton
:09:41. > :09:44.goalkeeper, Finn. Whittle will celebrate. There is a deflection off
:09:45. > :09:49.the goalkeeper was Mike Roddy. Goalkeepers hate that position,
:09:50. > :09:54.difficult to get to, so close to the body. Sunderland lead, and just look
:09:55. > :09:59.at what it means to them. Sunderland have believed. Let's see how ever
:10:00. > :10:06.can respond -- Sunderland have the lead. McQuade. Lovely movement.
:10:07. > :10:12.Still going. Cairns comes back and make sure she doesn't get the shot
:10:13. > :10:17.away. Free kick to Sunderland. Lovely, balanced movement. Good
:10:18. > :10:21.refereeing as well from Mike Jones to allow play to continue initially.
:10:22. > :10:29.The goalkick for Everton from Instone. It is cleared away by
:10:30. > :10:37.Jackson. Again, a clash between cairns and McQuade. This time,
:10:38. > :10:43.Everton forced free kick. No hanging around for Cairns with the shot. And
:10:44. > :10:46.Arnold in the Sunderland goal was confident it was sailing over the
:10:47. > :10:51.bar. It was dipping, just not quickly enough and stop let's nip
:10:52. > :10:57.down to pitch side with Mark who has grabbed a familiar face. We have
:10:58. > :11:04.Leighton Baines here, what did think so far? They were doing well, until
:11:05. > :11:11.now. A couple of winners to go so they could get back in the game
:11:12. > :11:16.before the end. Everton looking to up the ante. It was an excellent
:11:17. > :11:19.feed. Had a glance to see if the goalkeeper was off the line.
:11:20. > :11:28.Sunderland relieved it was harmlessly over in the end. That
:11:29. > :11:36.goes out for the corner. Another goal for Sunderland could seal it.
:11:37. > :11:40.Jackson hits it in. The clearance from Finn. And very alert reactions
:11:41. > :11:48.from Mike Jones, you can tell he's a top Premier League referee. McQuade
:11:49. > :11:51.releasing Whittle, almost, excellent save from Finn. And that is it,
:11:52. > :11:57.full-time. Just look at these scenes. Sweet victory for
:11:58. > :12:04.Sunderland. Let's go pitch side and join Lauren with the winning
:12:05. > :12:09.captain? How do you feel? Surprise. Because there are so many good teams
:12:10. > :12:15.in here, and we got final and we win it. I am really tired now. Did you
:12:16. > :12:20.ever expect you were going to win? No, no. There are just so many good
:12:21. > :12:30.teams. Congratulations, go and celebrate. The under 13s girls final
:12:31. > :12:34.saw Sunderland beating Everton 1-0. And now it is onto the mixed on the
:12:35. > :12:46.11ths final where Swansea take on Crystal Palace. It is over to Conor
:12:47. > :12:49.McNamara. Swansea, their rugby team are also the all Wales National
:12:50. > :12:54.champions despite this school not having a single blade of grass.
:12:55. > :12:59.Palace will provide stiff opposition. Beverley conceded two
:13:00. > :13:05.goals in the tournament so far. -- they have only conceded. Swansea
:13:06. > :13:11.have opened in goal, behind a back two of Davies, a promising amateur
:13:12. > :13:20.boxer and one of two Thomases in the team. Colwell in the engine room,
:13:21. > :13:29.and the other Thomas is a hard-working front man. Williams and
:13:30. > :13:34.Hutt start on the bench. Arnold is in goal, Entwistle is a natural
:13:35. > :13:43.leader who lays out from the back. In midfield, a strong, physical
:13:44. > :13:48.player in battle the bench, Rushton is an excellent Ocean having been
:13:49. > :13:55.the top scorer for Crystal Palace so far. Under way in the under 11
:13:56. > :14:04.final. That is an interception by Davies for Swansea. That was a
:14:05. > :14:09.strong challenge from the captain called well, to put it out or a
:14:10. > :14:12.warrant. The have been treated to a brilliant girls under 13 final.
:14:13. > :14:21.Let's hope this one can be even better. Quick feet. Good build-up
:14:22. > :14:25.from Crystal Palace. Some classy touches being displayed as the game
:14:26. > :14:33.settles down. Babies with the throw-in. Looking for call well.
:14:34. > :14:42.Nicely done by the captain. This is Thomas back to Hutt. Davis to
:14:43. > :14:46.Thomas, and a top save from Arnold, cleared by Entwistle. The goalkeeper
:14:47. > :14:56.got down very quickly. He needed to be alert. Colwell beginning to run
:14:57. > :14:59.the game in midfield. Each of the Swansea player seems very
:15:00. > :15:09.comfortable on the ball. Colwell again, and now Ware. Colwell, space
:15:10. > :15:15.opening up, and after such a bright start to the game, well, that
:15:16. > :15:21.would've been one of the goals of the tournament. Not far away, at
:15:22. > :15:28.all. Davies with another Swansea throw-in. Owen tries to win it back
:15:29. > :15:35.and Ware is quickly in on him. Swansea not giving Palace any time.
:15:36. > :15:38.Colwell again, and back with the Swansea captain once more. Thomas is
:15:39. > :15:44.wide open if he can pick him out, he does, and they are getting closer.
:15:45. > :15:49.Swansea continuing to win those 50-50 battles in midfield. You can
:15:50. > :15:53.see these Crystal Palace players are not giving up. Pressure on Colwell
:15:54. > :15:58.and a breakaway chance for Owen. Good base. I'm lucky, he lost his
:15:59. > :16:04.balance just as he pulled the trigger. Crystal Palace looking
:16:05. > :16:14.dangerous on the counterattack. Thomas to Colwell. Somebody needs to
:16:15. > :16:18.get closer, Colwell hits it, brilliant! It is the opening goal in
:16:19. > :16:25.this final at Goodison Park. And it is a beauty. He has been threatening
:16:26. > :16:30.to do this all game. Lovely balance. Slalom through the Crystal Palace
:16:31. > :16:35.defence, puts his laces through the shot, Swansea have the lead, and you
:16:36. > :16:41.have to say it was coming. Let's see what Mark Binks, pitch side. What a
:16:42. > :16:45.solo goal by the captain. He ran through the middle of the park and
:16:46. > :16:53.struck it straight in the bottom corner. Unbelievable. How will
:16:54. > :16:59.Crystal Palace respond? This is Rushton who has come on as a sub.
:17:00. > :17:04.Swansea cannot be complacent. It was a good save by Owen, and cleared
:17:05. > :17:11.away by Ware. Palace looking to capitalise on any errors. Rushton
:17:12. > :17:15.has to hit it first time, tries to resurrect the chance and across just
:17:16. > :17:22.goes behind Owen at the far post. The Swansea lead remains intact.
:17:23. > :17:30.Rushton meant to give it back to Owen, but it has been cut out by
:17:31. > :17:36.Colwell. This is Entwistle. Strong defending again by Thomas. Now Ware.
:17:37. > :17:41.It is too against two for Swansea, the other Thomas, and Palace throw
:17:42. > :17:47.everything into attack, searching for the equaliser, almost leaving
:17:48. > :17:51.the door open at the back. Will there be enough time to take the
:17:52. > :17:59.corner 's mode, that is it, the full-time whistle, and Swansea are
:18:00. > :18:03.the Premier League schools champions for 2016 and mark is with the scorer
:18:04. > :18:09.of the winning goal. How does it feel to score the winner at Goodison
:18:10. > :18:13.Park? It is an amazing feeling. I wanted it for my team-mates as well.
:18:14. > :18:18.It was amazing to score the winning goal in such a big stadium. Did you
:18:19. > :18:22.think coming here today that Swansea would win? I thought we would have
:18:23. > :18:26.been out in the group stages, because it is such a small place.
:18:27. > :18:33.But the boys really deserved the win. Give me a high five, well done,
:18:34. > :18:40.go and have fun. There you have it. What a fantastic tournament. Real
:18:41. > :18:46.quality on display, as the two mini Premier League trophies are lifted
:18:47. > :18:51.aloft by Sunderland for the girls under 13 team and Swansea City in
:18:52. > :18:58.the mixed under 11 team. I don't know what you're doing at the
:18:59. > :19:04.moment, Lozza, but what a day that was, the talent and workrate was
:19:05. > :19:09.incredible. Congratulations to Sunderland and to Swansea. It was an
:19:10. > :19:18.amazing day. Well done, guys. I will finish off on this note, see you
:19:19. > :19:23.soon. Watch this for a goal. Excuse me, Dernbach camera back here. I
:19:24. > :19:30.have just scored from the touchline. See you later, Lozza. -- turn that
:19:31. > :19:33.camera back here.
