Ben Wilkinson’s Elite Development Squad travelled to the New York Stadium for our final group assignment in the competition.
Our young boys in blue started our 2025/26 EFL Trophy campaign strong with a 5-1 triumph over League Two side Oldham.
It was then followed by a 3-0 loss to Bolton Wanderers as we sit second in Group E with a higher goal difference than our opponent, Rotherham.
And another positive result would see City claim a spot in the knockout stage of the competition.
So how did proceedings play out? CITY+ subscribers can find out in the video player above!
