Our Under-18s secured their place in the fourth round of the FA Youth Cup with an impressive 4–1 victory away at Mansfield Town.
Goals from Callan Hamill, Maalik Hashi, Louis Zecevic-John and Brando Bailey-Joseph capped a dominant display and ensured comfortable progression in the competition.
What happened
We couldn’t have asked for a better start and took the lead early on when Hamill finished off a well-worked corner routine, cleverly flicking the ball in at the near post.
Our advantage was doubled soon after when Zecevic-John was brought down inside the penalty area. Hashi stepped up and calmly dispatched the resulting spot-kick into the bottom left corner, leaving the goalkeeper with no chance.
