Manchester United Academy Briefing | 8 April 2025
UNDER-21s HELD BY FOREST
After 14 goals on Saturday, a further six were hit in front of a 700-strong crowd at Leigh Sports Village on Monday night. This time, they were more evenly shared.
Bendito Mantato put United ahead against Nottingham Forest just three minutes in before the visitors’ first response. Chido Obi netted from a Mantato assist to re-establish the Reds’ advantage before the break. A fine Obi solo goal further extended the lead only for Forest to claw two back late on through Kyle McAdam and Adam Berry.
