Former Blue Upson Sends Yeovil to Wembley

Former Ipswich Town midfielder Ed Upson looks set to play at Wembley after his goal against Sheffield United sent Yeovil Town to the League One play-off Final.

With the scores tied at 1-1 over the two legs but 1-0 to Yeovil on the afternoon  with just five minutes to go, Upson, arguably Yeovil's player of the match, glanced a cross into the far corner of the Sheffield United net to send his side to a play-off final and a chance to play Town in the Championship the next season.

Upson scored the winning goal for Town in the 2005 FA Youth Cup final, but despite much promise, failed to break through into the Town first team apart from two League Cup games in 2009/2010 and joined Yeovil in 2010, a club for which he has now clocked up over 100 games for.

The Bury St Edmunds born midfielder has represented England and both Under 17 and Under 19 level.
