Coach Paul Clement said "The performance was satisfactory, no more than that, but to get a score like that against a national federation, however small the nation, is a good result."

In their 2nd game the Academy lost 3-1 to Mexico, despite the Academy taking the lead through Daniel Philliskirk.

This was a game that left Clement disappointed but looking forward to playing Mexico again should the Academy win their last game against St Benedict's Prep and secure a place in the final.

Clement said, "It was a harsh lesson for the boys but a fantastic experience as there was a lot to deal with. A win in our last group game will put us into the final and we hope to play Mexico again."

The draw for the FA Youth Cup has been made and the Academy have been drawn away to Man Utd.

No doubt Chelsea TV will cover the game live and it is expected the game will be played at Altrincham FC.

The tie must be played by Saturday 13th December.
