U18s: United v Coventry

Manchester United’s high-flying Under-18s started our latest FA Youth Cup campaign in ruthless fashion, defeating Coventry City to set up a fourth-round tie at home to Preston North End.

Gabriele Biancheri's hat-trick and Chido Obi's double guided Adam Lawrence's side through as they seek to follow up on last season's unprecedented season of success by progressing in as many competitions as possible.

Wednesday's success will be particularly satisfying after a tough UEFA Youth League exit at the hands of AZ Alkmaar a week before. Our Academy teams now take a break for Christmas before returning in January 2025.
