Triple strike sinks youthful Reserves side
A youthful Leicester City reserve team were beaten 3-0 by Bradford last night.
With an eye on Saturday's Championship clash with Sheffield United, City included 10 Academy players in their starting line up.
And, despite a good first-half performance, they were beaten by three strikes after the break.
Reserve-team manager Gerry Taggart said: "We created a number of chances in the first half and were unable to score. They scored early in the second-half and we never got back into the game."
Ashley Chambers twice went close to giving City the lead in the opening 10 minutes.
However, Bradford went ahead shortly after half-time through Luke Medley.
Liam Smith doubled the hosts' lead with a shot from the edge of the area on 67 minutes. Luke Morgan completed the scoring four minutes later with a close-range strike.
@City: @Pentney, Magunda, Garner, Rowe-Turner, Beswick; C King, Kishishev, Cox, Burns; A Chambers, McKay. Subs: Hellings, Ambrusic, Sappleton, Cobb, Howard.
