Manchester United youngster Rhys Bennett scored his second senior goal for Fleetwood Town in a 4-1 away day victory over Crewe Alexandra FC.
The 21 year old Youth Cup winning captain drifted into the box unmarked in the 79th minute and powered home a header to score his side’s third of the evening.
He played the entire 90 minutes and was given a Sofascore rating of 7.6.
Bennett made eight clearances in the game and he also completed one tackle.
The United academy product won two out of three ground duels and also won one out of his two aerial duels.
He was heavily involved in possession as he had 61 touches of the ball and completed 38 out of 45 passes for an accuracy of 84%.
Ethan Williams was also given another start for Cheltenham Town after scoring at the weekend.
The 19 year old had a much more quiet evening however, in his side’s 0-3 loss to Bradford City.
He was subbed off after 62 minutes and had 42 touches of the ball.
Williams completed 17 out of 22 passes, where two were registered as key passes in the game.
The youngster was reasonably effective on the wing as he completed four out of his seven crossing attempts in the match.
He also had one shot on target but could not grab his fourth goal in four games.
The United academy product did struggle in duels as he failed to win an aerial battle and only came out on top in one out of his eight ground duels.
Williams could also only complete one out of his six dribble attempts as he was well-shackled by the home defence.
Ethan Ennis also came on for the final eight minutes of Doncaster Rovers 0-1 defeat to Bromley where he had one shot off target in the game.
