Allegedly, Biereth played as the goalkeeper at some stage in the match?

[starmandb]

Go top of premier league 2 table with a 3-2 win at Blackburn
Was 2-0 up and comfortable until Norton cuffy was sent off for handball
Biereth had turned and and scored after a Lopez cross
Before an emphatic finish from Hutchinson put us in control
The game changed with the dismissal and Blackburn levelled the second coming from the penalty spot
Balogun turned and finished in the last minute to secure all points and top spot

Premier League 2 becomes under-21 competition

From the start of the 2022/23 season, Premier League 2 will become an under-21 competition.

The amendment to the age limit, which was previously under-23, has been introduced as part of an ongoing review of the Elite Player Performance Plan (EPPP) to better align with the EFL Trophy and international competitions.

The rule change is designed to reflect the reality of the players in the competition, whose average is currently 19.

Clubs will, however, be permitted to use five (previously three) over-age outfield players and one over-age goalkeeper, in order to transition from its under-23 format.

The aim is to continue providing opportunities for the best young players to play alongside and against older and more experienced players.

Premier League 2 is part of a suite of competitions that aims to best prepare players to make the transition to senior football.

This includes a variety of domestic cup competitions, matches involving senior opposition, such as through the EFL Trophy, and competitions against international peers which will return this season in expanded formats, following the Covid-19 pandemic.

Premier League 2, which for the last two seasons has been won by Manchester City, continues to focus on technicality, physicality and intensity to bring players as close to first-team experience as possible.

The League is continually monitoring all elements of the academy system and making refinements accordingly.

Consultation is ongoing with clubs as part of a wider review of the Professional Development Phase Games Programme which will continue through the season.
