Man City coach Wilcox hails Hong Kong fans after winning Soccer Sevens

Manchester City U18s have won the Hong Kong Soccer Sevens.

Two cracking second half goals from Brandon Barker, who was named Player of the Tournament, proved enough to triumph over their Hong-Kong based opponents, who fielded many of their first team squad against the young Blues.

City coach Jason Wilcox told the club's website: "I thought it was fantastic and a fitting end to our season. They've worked really hard.

"It's a difficult competition and difficult conditions, but the lads have coped with it. It's been great to experience the culture, the supporters have been fantastic, so fantastic!"
