Erdington Star became the latest team to lift Birmingham FA silverware as they overcame Silhill Youth in the Sunday Youth Cup Final at County HQ.
Silhill struck first when Taghasa Bertram released the ball early from the halfway line, allowing Steve Townsend to leave his marker and slot the ball home under a committed Tom Richards in the 12th minute.
Stuart Rencher levelled the game in the 25th minute, finishing off a neat passing move by blasting the ball into the roof of Jack Somerville's goal.
Two quick goals in the 43rd and 44th minute ensured that Erdington Star could return to the dressing rooms at half time with a comfortable lead.
A curling shot from the right of the penalty box from Sean Findlay gave Erdington the advantage, whilst Craig Owen doubled made the scoreline 3-1 straight after the game restarted.
Silhill struggled to create many chances during the second half as their duties were mainly defensive. James Coyle delivered a vital header as Shaun Walsh looked certain to add his name to the list of goalscorers in the 58th minute.
Findlay's second strike - and Erdington's fourth - came in the 63rd minute in the form of a spectacular free kick which gave Somerville no chance.
Despite time running out, Silhill kept their heads high, and were rewarded for their commitment with an 86th minute consolation goal - Martin Moran running in to connect with a Bertram cross, whipped in from the right.
