U21s MAINTAIN LEAD AT THE TOP

Travis Binnion’s squad secured another three points in Premier League 2 with an impressive 4-1 victory over Tottenham Hotspur at home on Saturday afternoon.

Gabriele Biancheri, who recently scored his inaugural goal for Wales’ Under-21s, showcased his remarkable form by netting a hat-trick.

Diego Leon, the newly signed player from Paraguay, celebrated his first competitive goal in United colors with a stunning finish. He made a powerful run from his own half before finding the net.

This latest win keeps the young Reds at the top of the table after seven matches this season. It came on the heels of a disappointing defeat in the EFL Trophy, where Barnsley capitalized on a second-half red card, winning 5-2. Binnion’s team had a strong first half and were unlucky to be tied at halftime after David McGoldrick converted a penalty to equalize Jack Fletcher’s early seventh-minute goal.
