Friendly Match | J Davidson Stadium | Scorers: Hannigan 19, Sedoc 58; Gomes 47
Kieran McKenna’s Manchester United Academy team took a break from the league programme to face a strong Altrincham side in a friendly match at the J Davidson Stadium on Tuesday evening.
The young Reds put on a highly creditable performance against a considerably older and more experienced set of players and equalised through Angel Gomes before losing narrowly in a closely-contested game.
Rain was forecast for this corner of Greater Manchester and it proved to be accurate with the wet stuff cascading onto the scene as the game got under way.
