Default Re: Man United U-18 Matches 2016/17

Tidak berbeda dengan tim senior, sama-sama meraih hasil imbang minggu ini..



UNDER-18S: LIVERPOOL 3 MANCHESTER UNITED 3

Under-18 Premier League | Liverpool Academy | Scorers: Gribbin 13, 38, 88 pen; Brewster 16, McAuley 19, Dhanda 54

Callum Gribbin scored a brilliant hat-trick as Manchester United extended their unbeaten run in the Under-18s Premier League North to seven games after an entertaining 3-3 draw against Liverpool on Saturday morning.

The young Reds took the lead in the 13th minute at the Liverpool Academy as Gribbin followed up after DJ Buffonge's effort was well saved by Dan Atherton.

Liverpool turned the game around with two quick-fire goals as Rhian Brewster fired home from 20 yards and Glen McAuley calmly slotted in, before Gribbin drew United level towards the end of a lively first period.

The home side retook the lead with a stunning 54th-minute strike from Yan Dhanda, but United keeper Ilias Moutha-Sebtaoui frustrated them with two brilliant penalty saves from Dhanda and Brewster in each half – the second of which saw United defender Jake Kenyon sent off.

And the impressive Gribbin struck with a calmly-converted spot-kick of his own with two minutes remaining to complete his treble and secure a share of the spoils for United from an action-packed game, which leaves the sides second and third in the table respectively.

Kieran McKenna’s side, fresh from a confidence-boosting 4-0 win at Newcastle last week, made a bright start on a cold morning in Kirkby and took an early lead.

Marauding full-back George Tanner had already been denied by a brilliant save from Liverpool keeper Atherton, who kept out Buffonge’s effort, but Gribbin was on hand to slot home the follow-up into the bottom corner.

Despite looking a threat going forward, United soon found themselves on the back foot as Neil Critchley’s Liverpool team produced a quick-fire turnaround with two goals in three minutes.

Callum Whelan was caught on the ball by Liam Coyle, who freed Brewster to rifle an unstoppable effort into the bottom corner.

And Reds stopper Moutha-Sebtaoui was beaten again soon after as Dhanda slipped in McAuley, who coolly finished from seven yards.

Dhanda had the opportunity to give the visitors a two-goal cushion when Liverpool were awarded a spot-kick just after the half-hour mark.

McAuley appeared to be shoved over by Kenyon outside the box but the Reds forward, who scored twice in Liverpool’s win at United in August, couldn’t find a way past Moutha-Sebtaoui from 12 yards as the keeper pulled off a fine stop.

Although Liverpool had further opportunities too, United’s enterprising play deserved some reward and Gribbin, who only returned from three months out injured a fortnight ago, clipped in a brilliant finish off the post from Indy Boonen’s pass.

After an all-action first half, the second period was more conservative, with United enjoying sustained spells of possession, but Liverpool regained their lead with a thunderous effort as Dhanda made up for his penalty miss in some style.

Both sides had chances, which were few and far between after the break, as United substitute Tahith Chong was denied from close range by Atherton before Brewster steered Rafael Camacho’s cross wide of the post.

After conceding a second penalty of the game, United’s Kenyon saw red for bringing down Brewster, who was kept out by another superb stop from Moutha-Sebtaoui as Liverpool missed a golden chance to extend their advantage.

But Man-of-the-Match Gribbin had the final say from the spot, after Kris Owens was penalised for bringing down Angel Gomes, by dispatching past Atherton from 12 yards to snatch a well-earned point for United from an eventful encounter.

The young Reds return to action next Saturday against Derby County at The Cliff Training Ground (KO 12:00 GMT).

United: Moutah-Sebtaoui; Tanner, Kenyon, Warren, O’Connor; Whelan, Boonen, Buffonge (Hamilton 45’), Gomes; Burkart (Chong 52’), Gribbin. Subs not used: Dunne, Fojticek, Bohui.

Liverpool: Atherton; Shariff, Owens, Parker, Johnston; Coyle, Camacho, Masterson, McAuley; Brewster, Dhanda. Subs: Adekanye, Caan, Lewis, Hunter.
