City Under-18s winger Farid Alfa-Ruprecht thought his teammates pulled off a “really good performance”, after a 4-1 victory in the Under-18s Premier League North.

Alfa-Ruprecht opened the scoring after he tapped in from Luca Fletcher’s squared ball early in the first-half.

Straight into the second-half, Ashton Muir finished from Justin Oboavwoduo’s squared ball, before a counter attack set Alfa-Ruprecht free as he tucked away a composed finish to secure his brace.

An own-goal from Manchester United’s Jaydan Kamason off a corner made it four for City, but Ethan Williams powerful strike late on to deny us of a clean sheet.

City inflicted a first league defeat of the season and closed the gap to 10 points on the visitors.

The young winger was overjoyed by the team’s performance

“It was a really good performance by all of us,” Alfa-Ruprecht began.

“I’m really happy to help the team win scored two goals and I thought it was a good, good game!

“We always speak about being at the back post and the coach is always telling me and the other wingers that, and I’m delighted to score that one and really happy that the coach is happy with my performance.

“I think this could be a really good season, we’ve got a lot of good games coming up, we’re really looking forward to it and I hope we can win all of them.”
