Manchester United moved up to fifth place in the U18 Premier League with a 1-0 victory over Sunderland on Thursday afternoon. Ethan Ennis netted the only goal of the game with a first-half wonder strike to give Travis Binnion's side another precious three points on the road.
United took the lead five minutes before half-time when former Liverpool forward Ennis picked the loose ball up on the edge of the box and cut inside onto his right foot before he unleashed a superb curled effort into the far corner of the goal.
It was the fifth goal Ennis has scored in his last three league appearances, following a brace in the 5-5 draw with former side Liverpool earlier in the month and the two goals he netted in a 4-1 win over Leeds last weekend.
