MATCH REPORT: Liverpool U23’s 4-1 Panjab FA
Panjab FA fell to a 4-1 loss at Kirkby following a positive performance against Liverpool U23’s.
Panjab FA started the game well and pressed high during the early stages. With Liverpool passing the ball well, it was the visitors who had the first attempt of the half. Skipper, Amarvir Sandhu tried his luck from an awkward angle and was unlucky to see his effort go just over on four minutes.
But Rueben Hazell’s side soon took the lead thanks to Camen Bhandal who headed the intial saved penalty into the net following an excellent save from the ‘keeper.
The dream lead didn’t last long though as Adam Lewis and trialist, Angel, put the hosts infront on the stroke of half-time.
But, Panjab FA didn’t give up. Their ruthlessness throughout the second half came to a surprise to Liverpool with several chances going just missing.
Abdi Sharif and Glen McCauley saw their two efforts go close for The Reds as Herbie Kane was next to be on the scoresheet – converting a long-range effort.
A fifth from Bobby Adekayne secured the win for Liverpool, just before Reuben Hazell’s men saw a great effort cleared off the line in the dying minutes.
An overall good performance from the team in what was a ground-breaking fixture for Panjab. Next, we face Jersey on Saturday.
MATCH PREVIEW: Liverpool U23’s vs Panjab FA
Panjab FA will face-off against the Liverpool Under-23 team in a sensational match as they step up their preparations for the upcoming 2018 ConIFA World Cup.

For Panjab FA, it will be the final chance for their players to impress manager Reuben Hazell ahead of the submission of the final squad list for the upcoming competition.
LFC U23’s, meanwhile, will be hoping to sign off their season in style after narrowly missing out on the 2017/18 Premier League 2 title.
This all makes for what will surely be an action-packed game which is due to kick off at 12:00pm (BST) And Liverpool have ensured that watching the match couldn’t be easier for you.
After a disappointing mid-season spell, Neil Critchley’s LFC U23 side have ended their Premier League 2 campaign stylishly, with recent wins over Everton and Chelsea.
Those results mean that the Merseyside team finish as league runners-up, losing out to Arsenal U23 by two points.
The ones to watch for this tie could feature a number of first team players for The Reds with the likes of Adam Lallana and Danny Ings needing minutes. Currently in the U23 squad, Harry Wilson and Yan Dhanda will look to make the headlines.

Reuben Hazell Delighted With Liverpool Opportunity
Manager Reuben Hazell has revealed his delight for Panjab FA after the club announced a friendly with Liverpool U23’s in preparation for the CONIFA World Cup.
The tournament, which takes place in London, gets underway on the 31st May as Panjab FA take on Kabylie in the first game.
Speaking straight after the announcement with Liverpool Football Club, Hazell couldn’t hide his excitement for the latest news.
He said: “It goes without saying – they are one of the biggest teams in the world.
“They have a very good Under 23 side who are technically better than us but we are ready to stand up to the test. They’re a supergiant in world football who move the ball around very quickly – so it will be a good test for the lads.
“We will come up against teams like this in World Cup, teams who move the ball around well and keep possession. It’s paramount that we know what to do.”
The former defender also admits that he will be willing to try new things out in the game, and admits that it’s the perfect opportunity to experiment.
“We will be experimenting,” he added.
“We are still looking for our team to take to the World Cup. This is our last game before we announce our 20-man squad, so it will be a good opportunity to show what the boys can do.

Panjab FA was founded by Harpreet Singh July 2014 shared his thoughts with us. ” My objective when launching Panjab FA, the national football team representing the Panjabi community worldwide was to provide the international platform and exposure to show the talents of the community. We made a made after only 18 months with alot of hard work collectively by being minutes away from winning the only world title outside FIFA.
We are now preparing to compete at the ConIFA World Football Cup 2018 in London. This is an incredible opportunity for us to one step further and win the the World Cup. By winning the competition, this will give all the substance for the gifted talented players of Panjab to progress at an accelerated pace in the game.
