Linfield lift SBYL U17s cup trophy

LINFIELD U17s became SBYL Cup champions last night after defeating Derry City 7-0 at the Blanchflower Stadium.

It was the perfect start to the game for the south Belfast side as they netted twice in the opening 10 minutes.

A 37th minute goal meant it was 3-0 at the break, before two more goals in 10 minutes made it 5-0.

Linfield scored their sixth on the 68th minute before netting again to secure a comfortable victory.

The Blues had defeated Cliftonville Ladies U17s 17-2 to make the final, whilst Derry were the victors against Glentoran Women U17s.
