Really looking forward to this one. We have a really talented group of players given we won the u18's league and double last season but tonight's opponents are the reigning UEFA Youth League champions so it should be a very tough test for the boys.
Should be a cracker though with plenty of good football on show.
Come on you reds.

Aye just before HT. Gutted.
Still a decent scoreline though with second leg at OT.

Obi Martin on bench. Should get a good cameo.

What's the word up around Old Trafford about him?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Lot of excitement but haven't seen a great deal of him yet. I'm going to second leg so hoping he starts.

Aye they are meant to be a top team and given they won it last season it shouldn't shock anyone really.
If we are still in the tie for return game it will be bonus.

Yeah, Dutch teams tend to be quite strong at youth level. Think AZ have produced quite a few in the last few years.

2-1 wouldn't be a disaster.

Very good. Let's hope he's the real deal. To be honest I posted that for the pun value but good info and I hope it'll be a good game in the second leg for you.

Gave Madrid a proper tonking last season, iirc. And a number of other big names too.
No idea how many of that team have since graduated or been moved up a level, though.

Ah, no - I misremembered.
It was two seasons ago. They tonked Eintracht 5-0, Barça 3-0, Madrid 4-0, then they squaked past Sporting on pens and tonked Hajduk 5-0 in the final.
Olympiacos (!) won it last season.
