Man Utd win Milk Cup final against Sheffield Utd

Manchester United have won the Milk Cup final against Sheffield United.

An attack down the left midway through the half ended with captain Robbie Brady squaring the ball for Michael Ngoo, who kept his cool to stroke the ball into the back of the net.

Ngoo, a trialist from Southend, was involved in United's second as well, which arrived fifteen minutes from time. Latching onto a pass into the area, the tall attacker flicked the ball back for playmaking midfielder Etzaz Hussain to sidefoot in United's second.

United coach Paul McGuinness was delighted his side became the first to retain the trophy.

"It's a great achievement," he told manutd.com. "Quite a few of these players can come back next year, so maybe we'll make it three in a row. The conditions were difficult but we dealt with it well. The second goal was a magnificent team goal, so hopefully we entertained the crowd as well."
