DESPITE taking an early lead through Jose Baxter, Everton under-18s were beaten 3-1 by West Bromwich Albion at Finch Farm on Saturday.
Neil Dewsnip’s side failed to build on their excellent win at Manchester United the previous week and despite a very good performance and fine start they lost for a fifth time this season.
Baxter scored the opening goal. The 17-year-old Bootle-born forward was on hand to score from close range after Aristote Nsiala has initially connected with Luke Garbutt’s corner.
