U18s : United vs Newcastle
- Thread starter saik
- Start date
U18s are playing Newcastle, it's the 21s playing Blackburn (1-0 up).
U21's are 1-0 up against Blackburn after an owngoal by Patrick Gamble - a name like that for a defender, must be a bad tabloids dream
Vitek, Murray, Bennett, Aljofree, Kingdon - Shoretire, Gore, Oyedele - Forson, Hugill and Mejia (subs: Williams, Mee, Scanlon, Collyer, Kambwala)

A bit sad to see we have broken up the Munro / Kingdon partnership that has been so successful - Kingdon moved up to the U21 and Munro starts on the bench
Yep, fixed it. Got them mixed up looking at that tweet.
Looks like Gore is back to playing with U21's now that Eriksen and McT are fit again. A shame, would have liked to see more of him for the senior team.
Phil Jones is with the team here.
What time is K.O?
Looks like the Newcastle team turned up a bit late.
It should have already started. It's a 12.30 kickoff.
Thought it was, wasn't sure if the stream was delayed.

Goal United 1-0. Curley with the goal.
Amass with the cross which Wheatley should have scored but the rebound falls to Curley who scores.

What’s happened to Ibragimov? Haven’t seen his name around for a while.

Nice bright start from us. Newcastle barely getting a sniff of the ball.

1-0 up and a box of McNuggets in hand, do Saturday mornings get better than this?

Amass with a good run down the left again, but the cross is too close to the GK who collects it comfortably.

Newcastle getting into the game a bit more now. Emerson with a nice dribble into the box, saved by Harrison.

Might be blind but I do think the Newcastle player may have got a touch on the ball for that penalty. Wheatley chips it in to make it 2-0.

Penalty to United. Fitzgerald brought down in the box. Wheatley to take it. 2-0. Cheeky panenka penalty.

Daresay that was a Greenwood-esque finish by Lacey, we must be coaching that kind of finishing in the academy - fantastic goal. Running riot here.
Newcastle score immediately from kick off after a pretty well worked goal.

Lacey is the next one that's a cert to make it to the 1st team?
Yea, I can't understand people who are not excited by him. By far the biggest talent in our u18's I think.
Not a cert but definitely the most talented we've had in a while.
Amass is ridiculously good on the ball but his defending is suspect and that's putting it kindly.
I think if my memory serves me correctly, Greenwood would thump the ball cleaner, low back lift.
United 3-1

Newcastle get one back. Amass loses his man who cuts it back into the box for them to score. United 3-1.

He scored a few like the one Lacey did, was a deceptively good finish that.
Lacey's bit of play was fantastic there, shame Fitzgerald(?) was pulled back. There's 100% gonna be a sending off here today.

McAllister booked.
McAllister booked.
Both FItzgerald and the Newcastle player into the book. Already a couple of yellow cards on both teams.
I do think we have a issue a with concentration sometimes, but it’s to be expected at this level I suppose. We need to be careful playing out too, sometimes one touch will do.
I do like Mcallister though. Very committed.

He just stands out technically.
That's a ridiculously soft yellow, feck off Ref.
Newcastle a pube away from a second goal
