Gary Gardner scored all three goals in a comprehensive victory over Ajax U19s in the Young
Lions' final group stage match of the NextGen Series at Villa Park tonight, guaranteeing a place in
the quarter finals next year.
Ajax, who are now bumped down to second place in the group, have one final game; Rosenborg at home
on November 29th.
The NextGen Series has announced the brackets for the quarter finals on their Twitter feed and
it sets up a possible trip to Barcelona for our Young Lions. Due to domestic fixtures, the quarters
finals will be played over just one leg with each of the group winners earning the advantage of
playing at home:
QF1: Group 1 Winner vs Group 3 Runner-up
QF2: Group 2 Winner vs
Group 4 Runner-up
QF3: Group 3 Winner vs Group 1 Runner-up
QF4:
Group 4 Winner vs Group 2 Runner-up
Group 2 has already been wrapped up with Sporting winning the group and Liverpool finishing in
second place.
