Four goals and four red cards certainly makes our men’s under-18s’ 4-0 win over Palace on Saturday one of the more interesting games of the Premier League campaign.

Younes Ibrahim put Albion in front after three minutes from the penalty spot, putting his strike beyond the reach of Harry Whitworth to the right of goal.

Donte Martin was shown a straight red card for violent conduct after 15 minutes and Albion had their second goal not long after when Adam Brett tapped in from a cross from the by-line.

It was an hour-wait for another goal or red card.

Henry Kasvose got on the end of Brett’s unbelievable pass with the outside of his boot and found the bottom left corner with three minutes of normal time to play.

That still provided more than enough time for the Eagles’ Jasper Judd and Sean Somade to be given their marching orders, with Sebastian Ademola tapping in late on to complete the rout.

Men’s under-18s head coach Bjorn Hamberg said, “It was a great day for us and a well deserved win. From the first minute we showed a good attitude and played on the front foot.

"We stayed cool and showed our qualities. Technically and mentally it was a very important game for us.

"I am so happy for the boys. We've reacted superbly after the defeat against Leicester by beating Chelsea away and securing a comfortable 4-0 win against a team that was top of the table."
