Crystal Palace out of PL Cup as Bindley strikes in added time
Oliver Bindley headed in a late winner in the 90+4th minute to give Aston Villa a 2-1 win and end Palace Under-18s' defence of their title.
Oliver Bindley struck in the 90+4th minute to hand Aston Villa a 2-1 win over the Crystal Palace Under-18s at the Academy on Saturday. The result ends the Young Eagles' defence of the U18 Premier League Cup title, as they go out of the competition.
The game was tight. Anderson gave Palace the lead in the 14th minute from a rebound after his first effort was cleared off the line, and Bindley headed Villa level in the 19th. Atkins was shown a straight red card on 32 minutes, and Palace spent much of the match with ten men, holding on to the draw thanks to a key save from a trialist in the 75th minute.
According to the club's official website, the winner came late, with five minutes of added time already signalled.
