Leicester and Brentford U21 into trophy knockout stage
- Published
Brentford U21 and League One side Leicester City both moved into the knockout stages of the Jersey Mike's Trophy with vital victories.
The Bees had to beat the Football League's basement side Crawley Town in their final fixture in Southern Group H to progress and did so courtesy of a Domeiro Bobb-Semple double in a 2-1 success at Broadfield Stadium, where Connor Wickham scored on his Crawley debut.
In Southern Group B, the Foxes trailed at the King Power Stadium against League Two Walsall, who would have gone through in place of their hosts with a win. But strikes from Will Smallbone and John Lundstram put them ahead by the break and they held on.
