Yesterday, Crystal Palace Under-18s displayed their attacking prowess by putting four goals past top-tier Academy Reading in the FA Youth Cup.
Palace’s frontline kept the Royals’ defence busy and broke a tight 2-2 deadlock in impressive fashion, with Brandon Aveiro burying an emphatic free-kick and Rob Street turning home after a surging run from Brandon Pierrick.
Also part of Palace’s attacking options was TQ Addy, whose trickery along the left-wing ensured the Eagles’ front-men were well supplied. Then, from the bench, attackers John-Kymani Gordon and Josh Ajayi provide reliable alternatives, especially when Street and Aveiro join the Under-23s’ squad.
