Mercedes-Benz Junior Cup 2015

United will play Fenerbahce in about half an hour. Were doing really well apart from the last few minutes of the first game. We also have the youngest squad in the tournament and as far as I know Williams is the youngest player in the tournament

The lack of composure is shocking, losing 2-0 right now. The no 5,6, 11, 2, no idea what they are doing. Where is Gribbin?

Too young.

The winner of the other group BMG were also beaten by the 3rd of our group Zurich 2-4.
 
Very strange performance it was as if they saw Fenerbahce losing 6-0 in the last game and just thought they could all attack for the game. In the other games we were defending well in numbers but in this game we were left with only 1 player back a lot of times
 
Strangely set up tournament. As far as I can make out the points and goal difference from the first group carries on to the 2nd group where were in with Hoffenheim, Fenerbahce and Stuttgart but we dont play Stuttgart again so basically to get into the semi final we need to win against Hoffenheim tomorrow or draw with them if Fenerbahce and Stuttgart draw

Nearly all top teams from the first group stage have lost their first group match in this round (Only Schalke have beaten Celtic).....that was a bit wierd.

Everything is correct

It's good that the Stuttgart vs Fenerbahce match is before our last group match so we know what we have to do against Hoffenheim
A draw between Stuttgart vs Fenerbahce is surely the best result for us but a bit unrealisitc.....just 1 draw in 16 matches today
 
Either our game today has been moved a spot or I misread the schedule. In any case, it's at 1:20.
 
Stuttgart wins against Fenerbahce, which means we finish third with a draw or a loss (as long as it's not four goals or more). First with a win.
 
Ends 3-1. We play Borussia Mönchengladbach in the second semi-final at 3:25
 
Poop, missed the rest restarting. Looks like that was the only way to get it going again
Yeah, seems like closing the window and reopening is the way to do it if it goes down.
 
Good performance, good goals. Sloppy goal to concede, though.

Impressed by Rathbone in this tournament, he and Fosu Mensah have probably been our best players so far
 
Some good team goals.Rathbone impressed me again.Riley,CBJ,Mensah etc also very good.
