UNDER-18s: BLADES BLUNTED
Youngsters ease past Sheffield United...
United’s under-18s made it back to back wins at the weekend, with a 3-1 success against Sheffield United.

Frank Mulhern levelled matters in the second half, though, and Richard Naylor’s side continued to dominate. Mulhern added a second goal, and Tom Lyman made it 3-1.
The Blades win followed a 4-1 success against Birmingham City the previous weekend when Mulhern, Purver, Phillips, and Mbanje all scored.
United: Peacock-Farrel, Booker, Coyle, Berry, Assenso, Roper, Crouz, Cook, Lyman, Mulhern, Mbanje.
