Blackburn Rovers claimed victory in the 2025 Utilita Kids Cup at Wembley Stadium, with Salesbury C of E Primary School beating Queens Park Rangers, represented by Salusbury Primary School, 2-0.

Rovers struck either side of half-time with Freddie Howarth giving them the lead after a perfect flick over the top found the number 10, who rounded the goalkeeper and slotted home.

Despite attempts to get back into it, QPR couldn't find the equaliser, and Blackburn doubled their lead thanks to a strike from captain Reuben Mercer.

With the goalkeeper off his line, Blackburn quickly won the ball back with Mercer perfectly placed to put the ball into the back of an empty net.

There were scenes of jubilation for Salesbury C of E Primary when the full-time whistle was blown, with cheers of celebration being heard from the families of the players sitting in the stands above.
