Kids Begin Run In

Posted on: Fri 23 Apr 2010

Wolves' Academy under 18s begin their run in to the end of the season when they face Sunderland at Compton Park on Saturday - the first of five games in 17 days.

After away trips to Blackburn and West Bromwich, the youngsters wind up their campaign with Tuesday fixtures against Manchester City and Blackburn.

Tomorrow's game, which follows on from a comprehensive 3-0 victory over Leeds last weekend, kicks-off at 1pm.

Reflecting on the victory over Leeds, coach Mick Halsall said: "It was a good result made even more pleasing as we had to field another very young side.

"We made a really good start and went one up after just five minutes when John Gorman headed home a well flighted free-kick from Nathan Rooney.

"There weren't too many chances for either side up to the break and I felt that we defended well as a unit.

"I thought that we were well on top after the restart and I can't recall our keeper, Aaron McCarey, having been seriously tested.

"Natty Laing scored two more goals for us, both after Rooney free-kicks to give Nathan a hat-trick of assists.

"It was a very satisfying performance and result after the disappointment of the narrow defeat at Manchester United a week earlier."
