Peterborough's 2023–24 EFL Trophy campaign commenced in the group stage, competing in Group D of the Southern section along with Cambridge United, Colchester United, and a team from the Tottenham Hotspur Under-21s.(REF) In Peterborough's first match, played on 12 September 2023, was the Cambridgeshire derby as they hosted their rivals Cambridge United at London Road. Two goals from either side of half time sealed a 2–0 win for the Posh in their opening match of the competition.[1] Peterborough controlled much of the possession throughout the match and opened the scoring thanks to Jadel Katongo.[1] A miss-hit effort from Ryan de Havilland from range fell into the path of Katongo who was able to swivel and shoot past the Cambridge goalkeeper to open the scoring in the 19th minute.[1][2] In the 54th minute, a through ball from Jonson Clark-Harris found Ephron Mason-Clark who fed the ball past the keeper to seal the match for the home side.[2] On 31 October, Peterborough's second match took place against Tottenham Hotspur Under-21s at home. The academy side took the lead thanks to Alejo Véliz.[3] However, Emmanuel Fernandez equalised for the home side to go in level at half time.[3] Two goals in the second half from Ricky-Jade Jones and Kwame Poku confirmed the three points for Peterborough.[3] In the final match of the group, they succumbed to a 1–0 defeat away to League Two club Colchester United thanks to a goal from Bradley Ihionvien.[4] Despite this defeat, Peterborough still finished top of Group D to progress to the next round of the competition.[4]

In the round of 32 stage Peterborough faced another academy side, this time Arsenal Under-21s at home.[4] Posh took the lead thanks to a de Havilland strike which found the bottom corner.[5] They doubled their lead before half time after Arsenal lost possession near their own box with the ball being squared to Clark-Harris to score.[5] Peterborough scored their third of the match after a counter attack which culminated in Malik Mothersille slotting the ball past the goalkeeper.[5] In the round of 16, the Posh were drawn at home again this time to League Two side Crawley Town.[4] A Nick Tsaroulla goal for Crawley opened the scoring, but a deflected strike from Harrison Burrows levelled the match five minutes later.[6] Mason-Clark intercepted a poor pass to score in the 37th minute which would ultimately be the winner.[6] Peterborough would be at home again for the quarter-finals, this time playing League Two AFC Wimbledon.[4] A 3–1 win for the Posh sealed their first appearance in the semi-finals of the competition since their winning campaign in 2014.[4] Peterborough were 2–0 up after only four minutes thanks to goals from Mothersille and Mason-Clark.[7] A late goal for Ryan McLean for Wimbledon set up a nervy end to the match before Ricky Jade-Jones sealed Peterborough's progression in stoppage time with a third goal.[7] In the semi-final, Peterborough confirmed their place at the Wembley final with an emphatic 3–0 victory away at league rivals Blackpool.[8] Despite having lost to Blackpool only three days prior in the league, Mothersille opened the scoring with an effort that found the top corner which was his third goal in his last four EFL Trophy matches.[8] Peterborough scored their second goal in the 80th minute with Harrison Burrows converting a penalty.[8] This dominant performance was rewarded with a third goal from Burrows once again.[8] His curling shot found the far corner in stoppage time to seal Posh's place in the final.[8]


Wycombe were placed in Southern Group C for the group stage, alongside AFC Wimbledon, Stevenage and Crystal Palace Under-21s.(REF) Their opening match of the campaign came on 19 September against Crystal Palace Under-21s at home. In front of 442 supporters, Wycombe's win came courtesy of a stoppage time winning penalty from Luke Leahy.[9] Their second match was an away tie against League One side Stevenage. A 70th minute winner from striker Sam Vokes sealed a narrow victory for the Chairboys and also confirmed their advancement to the knockout stages.[10][11] Their final match of the group stage was rescheduled and brought forward by three days to ease fixture congestion for the two sides.[12] Wycombe would win 1–0 for the third match in a row courtesy of an 84th minute Kieran Sadlier strike.[11]

In the round of 32, Wycombe conceded in the tournament for the first time but still prevailed 3–2 against Fulham Under-21s. Nottingham Forest loanee Dale Taylor scored a first half brace for Wycombe before Ollie O'Neill halved the deficit for Fulham in stoppage time of the first half.[13][11] A 79th minute goal from Chris Forino-Joseph put Wycombe into a 3–1 lead which was pegged back by Jonathan Esenga three minutes later, although Wycombe held on to progress.[11][13] In the round of 16, they faced West Ham United Under-21s. An early own goal from Lewis Orford gave Wycombe an early lead which was subsequently doubled by Richard Kone to give Wycombe a 2–0 lead at half time.[11] A second half goal from West Ham was ultimately a consolation as Wycombe progressed to the next round.[11] In the quarter-finals, the Chairboys were at home for the third round in a row to an academy side, this time Brighton & Hove Albion Under-21s.[11] Three Wycombe goals in five minutes ahead of half time gave Wycombe a half time lead thanks to two goals from Kieran Sadlier as well as an own goal from Leigh Kavanagh.[14] Dale Taylor added a fourth for Wycombe just after half time and they held on for a 4–1 win after Brighton had gone down to ten men.[14] In the semi-final, the Chairboys sealed their first appearance in an EFL Trophy final with a late 1–0 away win at League Two club Bradford City. The home side dominated much of the game with Wycombe failing to manage a shot on target until the 80th minute.[15] A cross from the right-wing found Matt Butcher who controlled it before sending a half-volley into the bottom right corner.[15] This goal from Butcher in the 91st minute was his first Wycombe goal.[15]


Academy Following relegation from the Football League in 2017, Hartlepool received less funding for their academy from the Football League.[16] The club therefore struggled to provide the financial means to maintain their academy.[16] Therefore, Hartlepool's academy of junior players between the ages of 9 to 16 was dispanded in 2019 in order to focus on players aged 16 to 18.[16] In 2022, the club made a successful application to the EFL to see a return of a Category 4 academy.[17]

Notable players to have graduated from Hartlepool's academy include: Adam Boyd, Luke James etc


The academy returned in 2022 following the successful category 4 application ahead of the 2022–23 season and are currently managed by __. In 202_, the club announced a partnership with Hartlepool College to develop young talent alongside a programme of education.

The opening match of Group C was contested between England and the United States. The two sides had previously played each other nine times with England winning on seven occasions and the United States on two.[18] The teams had previously played each other once in the FIFA World Cup in 1950.[18] The USA famously won 1–0 in one of the biggest World Cup shock results of all time.[19][20]

Rivalries[edit]

Scotland[edit]

Main article: England–Scotland football rivalry

The footballing rivalry has diminished somewhat since the late 1970s, particularly since the annual fixture stopped in 1989.

Argentina[edit]

Main article: Argentina–England football rivalry

The rivalry is unusual in that it is an intercontinental one; typically such footballing rivalries exist between countries that are close to one another, for example France–Italy or Argentina–Brazil. England is regarded in Argentina as one of the major rivals of the national football team, matched only by Brazil and Uruguay. The rivalry is, to a lesser extent reciprocal in England, locally described as a grudge match although matches against Germany carry a greater significance in popular perception. The rivalry emerged across several games during the latter half of the 20th century, even though as of 2008 the teams have played each other on only 14 occasions in full internationals.

Tournaments[edit]

FIFA World Cup[edit]

-They are also placed sixth by number of wins, with 32. -In 1950, four teams remained after the first round, in 1958 eight teams remained and in 2014 sixteen teams remained.
