The draw for the FA Cup third round took place today, unveiling an extraordinary potential scenario.
Details: Everton’s first opponent in the competition will be League One side Peterborough, setting up the possibility of a father playing against his son in the same match.
The legendary 39-year-old Ashley Young represents Everton, while his 19-year-old son, Tyler, is part of Peterborough’s squad.
"WOW! Dreams can come true…" Ashley Young commented on the draw on his X account.
However, Tyler Young primarily plays for Peterborough’s U-21 team and has only made one senior appearance for the club in the EFL Trophy.
Reminder: The headline fixture of the FA Cup third round will be the clash between Manchester United and Arsenal.
