Our under-23’s face Villarreal in the semi-final of the Premier League International Cup on Tuesday night.
The story so far
We kicked off the group stage with a 1-0 win over last year’s winners, Porto. It was a hard-fought battle with both sides working a number of clear-cut opportunities, but Reiss Nelson’s curling effort in the second half was enough to secure all three points.
We were then held to a 0-0 draw against Reading, but ended the group stage in fine form with a 5-2 win over Bayern Munich.
That saw us advance to the quarter finals, where we picked up a 2-1 win over Dinamo Zagreb thanks to goals from Joe Willock and Josh Dasilva.
