Tickets to see our U21s v Real Madrid at Old TraffordSunday 05 April 2026 09:28Manchester United’s Under-21s will host Real Madrid at Old Trafford on Tuesday evening, in the quarter-finals of the Premier League International Cup.It’s a mouthwatering clash for Adam Lawrence’s young side, after we finished second in Group D, behind Borussia Dortmund, to qualify for the last eight. Victories over Athletic Club and Borussia Dortmund, at Old Trafford, and a win against Sporting at Leigh, were ultimately enough for us to reach the knockout rounds for the first time since the 2018/19 season.Real, whose senior youth team play in the third tier of Spanish football, escaped a group containing the likes of Manchester City, Monaco and PSV Eindhoven to set up the tie. European encounters at Old Trafford always carry a unique feeling, and this clash brings that continental edge once more. Kick-off at the Theatre of Dreams will be at 19:00 BST and your support in the stands would be greatly appreciated.Describing the fixture as a meeting of “two iconic sides”, Under-21s coach Lawrence believes it’s an occasion to be embraced by players and supporters alike. United head into the game in strong form, unbeaten in our last four matches which has included three wins – most recently a 2-1 victory away at Leeds United on Good Friday. That run reflects what has been an excellent Premier League 2 campaign, where the young Reds sit level on points with Chelsea at the top of the table, having suffered just two defeats all season. Tuesday’s match is another valuable experience in the players’ development, on the pathway from the Academy to the senior set-up. BE THERE TO WATCH THE NEXT GENERATION With tickets starting at just £10 for adults and £5 for under-16s, Tuesday night offers a fantastic chance to take in a European clash at Old Trafford and see the next generation of Reds take another step on their journey. Nothing compares to being there in person as these young talents showcase their potential on one of football’s biggest stages but if you can’t make it to M16, the match will be shown live on MUTV.Recommended:Sunday 05 April 2026 09:28Back to Top
