Striker Craig Lindfield hit a hat-trick as the reds' u18 side went goal crazy on Teesside. Charlie Barnett, Conal Platt and Jay Spearing also found the net as John Owens' side bounced back from last week's defeat to Ipswich with a 6-2 win at Middlesboro. The young reds were outstanding from start to finish, and led 2-1 at half time before really turning on the style after the break.
The lads have now won two and lost one of their opening three games, and will be hoping to continue their good form when they entertain Leeds United at the Academy next saturday.
Team v Boro: Roberts; Spearing, Woods, Threlfall, Darby; Barnett, Ryan, Flynn (Behan), Hammill (Burns); Lindfield, Platt (Frayne):
