Earlier report
Manchester United U18s travelled to Burnley on Tuesday morning for a league fixture, with a win allowing them to move up into second place. Darren Fletcher rotated heavily, making five changes from the 6-3 win over Liverpool at the weekend. United took control of possession straight from the start, but Burnley proved a tough team to break down in the early stages of the match. The first opening came from a drilled long ball by United’s keeper Charlie Hardy, who picked out Emmanuel Ziro down the right wing, but the winger’s cross was cleared just as Kai Rooney was running onto it.Read original report ↗
