Mananchester City U21s 5 - 0 Everton U21s

Everton Under-21s came unstuck at Manchester City on Sunday afternoon after Charlie Whitaker was sent off at the end of the first half and the remaining 10 men didn't stand a chance.

The team featured Jamaal Baptiste, who is on trial.

Early on, George Pickford did well to save a well-struck angled shot from former Everton youngster Emilio Lawrence, who then should have scored midway through the first-half.

But Pickford the Younger could do little to stop the home side scoring twice before the break.

Things got worse for Everton in first-half added time when Whitaker was sent-off. He had already been booked for a foul and was shown a second yellow for an alleged dive inside the City penalty area.

City scored 3 more in the second half against the 10 men of Everton. 

Everton U21s: G Pickford, Dixon, Baptiste, Welch, Butler (81' O Samuels-Smith), Butterfield (68' J Patterson), Armstrong, Heath, Whitaker, Benjamin (81'  Barker), Sherif, (45' Bates).

Subs not Used: Barnsley.

Players sent off in both U18s and U21s in heavy defeats against City.

Not a great weekend for Everton Football Club.
