A LAST-minute goal from Sean Santos gave The Mosslands school the win in this year's U19 Wirral Schools Football Final against Birkenhead 6th Form College at Prenton Park.

Mosslands came back into the game twice after being 1-0 down and then 2-1 down.

Luke Street scored the two goals before Santos' goal won the cup for The Mosslands School.

Captain Danny Murphy was the standout player on the Prenton Park pitch and was deservedly named man-of-the match.

Team Coach Mr Batch said: "This is a welcome win for all the lads playing their last game for the school after seven years' service.

"They showed great character throughout the game against a very good Birkenhead 6th Form team."
