Half time. Totally different class to GCA. Mitchell and Rushford have been good.

Tuanzebe has looked very comfortable at the heart of United's back three. Distribution out from the back has been superb.

Any word on Obi's general play?

Any word on Obi's general play?

Ogo Obi has had three chances...two goals and one shot saved...apart from that just ok...Borg tidy but not a lot to do... #mufc

Looks like they're on LVG's water rest.Has stopped scoring for more than 5 mins...

 

[khoazany]

The MUFC Academy ‏@mrmujac 12s
Full time 11-0 #phew!

Really looking forward to the highlight

 

[Elliott]

Pfft.. Not even a dozen.

Thanks for the updates, mate.

 

[Adnan]

 

[bleedred]

Mitchell was really good. But you can't conclude anything from this game because the gulf in class was too much.

 

[limerickcitykid]

Only black boots for the U13?

I think all academies or most anyway have a black boot only policy until they make a first team appearance or a professional contract, not sure which one.

 

[Mr. MUJAC]

Here are some photo's of the players from last night's game with Gold Coast Academy.

I will try to get some match action at tonight's game.

 

[Elliott]

Thanks, @Mr. MUJAC. No idea what you told Rashford before taking his picture but I'm assuming it has to do with dying kittens.

Years previous there would be highlights on the official homepage, hopefully they put them up this year as well.

[gooDevil]

Some quality finishes in there.

 

[Elliott]

Cheers, @bleedred.

Rashford definitely looks bigger and stronger this season.

 

[PS18]

Yep, that was the thing that stood out a mile. Always seems to be one player who comes back for preseason having had a ridiculous growth spurt, definitely Rashford this time.

If he hasn't lost his skill, pace and agility as a result that could be a really good thing.

 

[Brightonian]

Highlights from last night's game.

Nice, cheers.

And Mr MUJAC, Khoazany, JB and everyone else, thanks for keeping us in the loop with this stuff, very much appreciated.

Any news on angel gomes? Wasnt he supposed to be a bright talent must be 14-15 now.

 

[khoazany]

Any news on angel gomes? Wasnt he supposed to be a bright talent must be 14-15 now.

He's 2000' born so will be with the Nike Cup squad.Youngsters must be 97' born or 98' born to play in this tourno he's too young.

 

[FromTheBench]

Any news on angel gomes? Wasnt he supposed to be a bright talent must be 14-15 now.

He's just 13. Has played with this group which is 3 years above his age group, but probably too young for this tourney.

I think they have age limits in terms of how young you can compete in this as well.

 

[mata10]

thanks @khoazany and @FromTheBench . Is that Rhain davies still with us?
Its great to see mitchell doing well, goss although older is another one i have high hopes of. Rest of this group i havent seen much of. Gribbin sounds a good talent.

Gribbin with a brilliant chipped ball over the top to rashford who lifts it over keeper but clears the bar

 

[Brightonian]

Gribbin really has the knack of a great ball over the top doesn't he? Seen a few from him myself, and Rashford (I think) scored from a stunning one against Gold Coast.
