Bradley Lowery Charity Match to Be Hosted by Everton at Goodison Park

Everton will host a charity match to celebrate Bradley Lowery, a six-year-old football fan who died from a rare form of cancer earlier this month. 

The club announced the news via their official website:

"In celebration of the life of Bradley Lowery, Everton Football Club is hosting a charity football match at Goodison Park on Sunday 3 September. 

"The charity game has been arranged in conjunction with the Lowery family and the Bradley Lowery Foundation and, with the assistance of celebrity football organiser Sellebrity Soccer, will see a host of celebrities lace up their boots for the match which will benefit the Bradley Lowery Foundation and Everton in the Community."

Lowery, a Sunderland fan, became a public figure during the 2016-17 Premier League season. Everton invited him to Goodison Park on several occasions, and he even stood in as the Black Cats' team mascot when Sunderland played Everton in February.

Sadly, his parents announced he had died as a result of neuroblastoma earlier this month, leading to an outpouring of sympathy from the football world. 

Per the Toffees' report, tickets for the charity match will be made available from the week of July 31, ranging from £5 for youngsters to £10 for adults.
