Congratulations to Kent on getting to Final!
Very proud of the Kent County players yesterday who managed a sensational comeback to beat Liverpool away in a fantastic semi final 5-3. Having gone 2-0 up early Liverpool deservedly went 3-2 ahead, and but for a fantastic left handed save by Jack Rankin would have gone 4-2 up and that would have been the end! But a late equaliser from hat trick hero and skipper Sam Cliff saw the game into extra time.
Two more goals in extra time turned the game back on its head.
There is a full match report under "Match Reports" on the site.
Kent will now be at home to Sheffield & Hallamshire in the Final. The players deserve as much support as they can get for their desire and will to overturn last years Final defeat.
As soon as the location and date is confirmed we will give the Final maximum publicity of course!
Can I thank those parents who made the 500 mile round trip both with the team and independently. It was a great feeling at the end to see so many friendly faces, away from home.
A massive thanks to Gary, Simon and Gary, and all the players who conducted themselves superbly on and off the field!
Very proud!! Ken
