Ashley Young (39, Everton) continued her active career until she was about to be in trouble, and she had a rare experience on the same stage with her son.
Premier League club Everton, which includes veteran full-back Young, faced Peterborough United in the third round of the English FA Cup from 2024 to 2025 as a result of the draw.
Peterborough is a team of 18-year-old Tyler Young, Young's son, and Tyler, a former Arsenal Youth, joined the senior team this season.
If Ashley and Tyler compete at Goodison Park at the same time in January next year, a historic 'rich derby' will be achieved.
After the match draw, Ashley posted on her personal SNS, "Wow...A dream may come true," he said with emotion. 'Chilling moment', 'Young vs. Young' were hashtagged.

Ashley played for Watford, Aston Villa, United and Inter Milan. During his time at Manchester United (2011-2020), he briefly shared a team with Park Ji-sung.
Fans are famous for the legend of the bird's dung incident. During the game, Ashley's open mouth was caught on the broadcast screen. Ashley later said in an interview that it wasn't a bird droop, but the image had already solidified.
Ashley, who joined Everton in 2023, is still showing off his skills this season, playing a total of 13 games, including 11 Premier League games.
Earlier in the National Basketball Association (NBA), superstar LeBron James (LA Lakers) became the first rich duo to play side by side in the regular season in October.
Cristiano Ronaldo (Al-Nasr), who is the same age as Ashley Young in 1985, also said earlier that he hopes to play with his son who dreams of becoming a professional player on the professional stage.
Meanwhile, Tottenham will face Tamworth in the fifth round of the FA Cup on the 12th of next month. The match against Tamworth is highly likely to be Yang Min-hyuk's debut match at Tottenham, which is scheduled to depart for London on the 16th.
