U21s RETAIN TOP SPOT
Travis Binnion’s side picked up another three points in Premier League 2 with a convincing 4-1 home victory over Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday afternoon.
Gabriele Biancheri, who recently netted his first goal for Wales’ Under-21s, continued his strong form with a hat-trick.
Diego Leon, the summer arrival from Paraguay, found the back of the net for the first time in United colours in a competitive fixture, and did so in style, driving forward from his own half and finishing.
Our latest success ensures the young Reds remain top of the table after seven games played so far this term. It followed a defeat on the road in the EFL Trophy, where Barnsley took full advantage of a second-half red card to complete a 5-2 victory. Binnion’s boys had enjoyed a strong first half and were unfortunate to be level at the break, with David McGoldrick converting a penalty to cancel out Jack Fletcher’s seventh-minute opener.
