More silverware for the Reds as reserves win the Wout van Overdam tournament

Hot on the heels of Paul McGuinness and his academy side bringing the Northern Ireland Milk Cup back to Manchester last weekend, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and the United second string will also have some silverware amongst the hand luggage when they return from their mini-tour of the Netherlands and Belgium after clinching the Wout van Overdam tournament yesterday in terrific style.

The WVO tournament is held in Pijnacker-Nootdorp, 15 miles or so from the city of Rotterdam, and has typically been contested mainly by teams from Holland and Belgium, but United added an English flavour in what was the fourth hosting of the event. Ole added Ritchie de Laet – fresh from a great performance for the first team at Old Trafford on Wednesday – to the squad that picked up a 4-1 win in Katwijk on Thursday, and that meant kitman Ian Buckingham was handed a squad number…

Those teams, as well as the five teams in Pool 2 (Royal Antwerp, Oliveo, De Graafschap, Germinal Beerschot and FC Groningen), played each other in a round robin format throughout Saturday morning and into the afternoon at the Oliveo FCS training complex.
