Obi and Gabriel on target as Man United U18s deliver statement win at Man City

Manchester United U18s claimed a 3-1 victory at Manchester City in the U18 Premier League on Saturday, handing the Cityzens their first defeat of 2026.

United started brightly, with JJ Gabriel calling goalkeeper Ben Vickery into action in the seventh minute.

Vickery then parried Chido Obi’s strike away from danger as United continued their search for the opening goal.

City’s first genuine attempt came after the half-hour mark when Kylan Midwood’s effort was tipped wide by Cameron Bryne-Hughes in the United goal.
