Leon Ayinde and a trialist were on target as Town’s U21s beat 10-man Wigan Athletic 2-0 at Portman Road. Ayinde gave the Blues the lead in the 26th minute as Town dominated the first half and the trialist forward came off the bench in a much more closely fought second period to seal the points for the home side in the 85th minute after the Latics had been reduced in number following the dismissal of one of their trialists for two bookable offences.
Town s U17 side somehow ended up on the wrong end of a 3-1 scoreline as they started their U17 Professional Development League Cup campaign with a defeat against Colchester United at Maldon & Tiptree s Park Drive ground on Tuesday evening.
