Lead coach Kevin Keen
West Ham’s allocation of 7,000 tickets for the FA Youth Cup final against Arsenal have sold out.
The match will be played at at the Emirates on Tuesday 25 April 2023 at 7pm and shows the wonderful support the lads are set to receive from our fabulous supporters.
Kevin Keen’s under 18s have already won their league and now stand on the brink of a double against the Gooners.
Tickets for both sides were priced at £5 for adults and £2 concessions. Supporters were allowed to purchase up to six tickets per transaction and they were all sold out by yesterday (Wednesday)
NowNews West Ham – Six Foot Two (6foot2.co.uk) reports that Arsenal has tickets on sale in home sections via their club website indicating they received a larger allocation than West Ham.
The Emirates stadium was chosen for final of the FA Youth Cup before the competition started and therefore the finalists were unknown at the time.
West Ham marched into the final by beating Southampton’s U18 team 6-1 in front of a packed house at the London Stadium. Divin Mubama caught the eye with a hat-trick in the thumping against the saints, but it was the all round play of Kevin Keen’s men which really caught the eye.
