A scintillating four-goal display from talisman Damo propelled the Future Pro Under-23s to a ruthless 7-0 victory on the opening day of the U23 National Football Youth League campaign.
Last season’s Golden Boot winner showed no signs of summer rust, picking up precisely where he left off to dismantle the opposition backline almost at will.
The tone was set early as the forward line pressed with relentless intensity, forcing turnovers high up the pitch and capitalising with unerring precision. Harlem Bean Fox proved equally unplayable, turning creator with a sharp assist before finding the net twice himself in a dazzling all-round performance.
Dan capped off the rout, finishing calmly to reward a thoroughly dominant showing across every department. The scoreline was no exaggeration; the side controlled territory, dictated the tempo from midfield, and restricted the visitors to scraps while maintaining defensive discipline until the final whistle.
Beyond the three points and the eye-catching goal difference, the cohesion and incisiveness on display will provide immense encouragement for the coaching staff. It serves as an early statement of intent for the campaign ahead, leaving the side with plenty of momentum and a formidable benchmark to match as the season unfolds.
