Despite an FAYC final against Sheffield United to look forward to, the u18s season in terms of the league is over.
On Saturday in the final game of their season, they handed rivals Leeds a 5-0 drubbing at Carrington with pretty much the team that will be facing Sheffield United next Tuesday at Bramall Lane (tickets are available through the club if you are interested in attending).
The game also saw the return of striker John Cofie who had been out with a knee injury since the early part of the year as he was given a half hour run out to shake some of the rust off and he looked good setting up 2 of the 5 goals. There was also a debut for goalkeeper Jonny Sutherland who had to be on his toes as Leeds seemed to offer more of a challenge late on.
A brace from Will Keane, a first United goal for van Velzen as well as efforts from the popular Ryan Tunnicliffe as well as Tom Thorpe handed United an emphatic victory.
Finishing 5th in the league attention now turns to the FAYC final.
