Alejandro Garnacho scored a first hat-trick for Manchester United U18s in their 6-1 rout of Stoke City.

The former Atletico Madrid striker worked impressively alongside Charlie McNeill to grab his treble on Saturday.

Further goals from Isak Hansen, Omari Forson and, predictably, Charlie McNeill kept United's youngsters well on course for the Under-18 Premier League North title.

Charlie Savage, having signed pro terms midweek, started in midfield, while Marc Jurado was fielded at fullback.

United moved five points clear at the top of the table.
