Manchester United won their second successive Premier League International Cup match, beating Sparta Prague 2-0 at Leigh Sports Village, to set up a winner-takes-all match with Middlesbrough.
On his 21st birthday, Joshua Harrop put United ahead in the 21st minute, and Devonte Redmond, pictured above, sealed the victory after the break.
Nicky Butt's side are level on six points with Middlesbrough at the top of Group B, but have a one-goal better goal difference.
