Stats

Recent Academy arrival Jay Turner-Cooke was rewarded for five goals in his opening eight U18 appearances with a first call-up at this level for United but remained on the bench.

Missing from the Newcastle squad due to international call-ups were Oisin McEntee (Ireland U21s) and Elliot Anderson (England U19s).

United U23s twice came from behind to claim a point in South West London on Friday afternoon, in a game that saw nine bookings and one dismissal.

Tom Allan scored a goal in each half  at the London School of Economics sports ground in New Malden, with the home side reduced to ten men near the end.

Looking to avoid their fourth successive defeat, the Cottagers went in front in the 27th minute when Jean-Pierre Tiehi headed home. Within a minute though, Allan took Stan Flaherty's pass and struck from close range.

Fulham regained the lead just before half-time when visiting goalkeeper Will Brown blocked Sonny Hilton's initial shot, but couldn't keep out the follow-up from fellow midfielder Sylvester Jasper.

Josh Scott set up the predatory Allan for his second midway through the second period and Flaherty then fired agonisingly into the side netting on 80 minutes after outwitting the home defence.

Home defender Ziyad Larkeche was given a red card in the 89th minute (reason unknown) but United couldn't take advantage of their numerical superiority, despite more than five minutes added time.
