Bridge-Wilkinson on U18s Blackburn win: 'A really good team performance'

Marc Bridge-Wilkinson couldn't hide his delight as his U18s team bounced back from the Manchester City defeat in style with a 3-0 win away at Blackburn Rovers on Saturday.

Layton Stewart grabbed the headlines with his second hat-trick of the season, but it was the overall team display in stormy conditions that delighted the manager.

"I thought it was a really good team performance," Bridge-Wilkinson told Liverpoolfc.com.

"We limited their chances on goal to efforts mainly from distance and I thought we controlled the game from the start and then managed to get a few more goals in the second half which made it look a bit more comfortable.
