- - The Liverpool Daily Post: "There was never any doubt in my mind that A’Court’s odd, and brilliantly taken, goal was a good one. As I saw it, Wheeler shot off the very good inside pass [from] Jackson, and the ball rebounded from goalkeeper, Kennon, to A’Court, who scored only at the second attempt and after cleverly bringing the ball from behind with a characteristic backward flip of his right foot."
