Watch: Man Utd coach rates SuperCupNI as a 'fantastic competition'

Man Utd coach Tommy Rowe says the Red Devils loved every minute playing in front of a large crowd as they beat Rangers at a packed Coleraine Showgrounds.

He made the comments after watching his side earn the comfortable 3-0 victory against the Light Blues.

A crowd of more than 3000 packed their way into The Showgrounds but it was the English giants who made all the early running and they netted first when Muhammed Ibragimov picked his spot with a shot from just inside the box.

Rangers, who were comfortably beaten in their first game by Co Antrim, fell further behind when Jeddeed Bangura was in the right place at the right time to convert early in the second half.

The scoring was completed soon after when a cross into the back post met the head of Ben Lyne and he made no mistake by finding the bottom corner.

Speaking to the News Letter after the game, Rowe explained how it was great to play in front of the sold-out crowd and how he simply wants to enjoy the week in Northern Ireland as much as possible.

He further explained how SuperCupNI is a “fantastic competition” and how is “a great advert for young players” looking to make their way into the game.
