Great result - won 6-1 and got revenge for the youth Cup knockout.
Great finish from King for the first - picking the ball up from Bradys pass on the left inside the b'burn half and cutting in while holding off a couple challenges to slip the ball past the keeper from a tight angle after 10 mins.
Calmly taken penalty from Brady for the 2nd after he was fouled by the keeper. Hes just returned from a broken metatarsal aswell so fair play to the lad
Another well taken finish from Cole for the 3rd after 52 mins, after King had made a cross field surge with the ball - evading 5 defenders challenges along the way - before one of the defenders made a mistake and slid in and knocked it to Larnell Cole to finish.
Pogba made it 4 on 54 mins. Rocket of a shot from bout 20/25 yards out could only be parried into the air by the keeper, who got up and watched the ball bounce -literally - right in front of him and over the line, despite his attempts to claw it out. Although when he did, King was there to knock it back in. Hilarious
Hussain got the 5th on 74 mins with a lovely turn to evade the defenders challenge and a neat finish after King kept the ball in play on the left and fed it to Lingard, who played it to Hussain.
blackburn pulled one back through Potts - an ex united youngster - from the spot after the keeper made a foul.
But Keane made it 6-1 on 85 with a far post tap in after king(again) found hussain who played the ball across the face of the goal.
King had an outstanding game by all accounts.

Thanks for that scholeseviltwin. Sounds like a great game. Im starting to look at the under 18s in more detail now as before I concentrated mainly on the first team and reserves so a great description such as this really helps
