Town’s U16s fell to a 3-0 defeat against Norwich City in the Hospital Cup in front of a crowd of more than a 1000 at Portman Road.

The first Hospital Cup fixture in 25-years got off to a bad start for Blues when Glenn Middleton scored an early opener for the visitors before Benny Ashley-Seal added a second midway through the half.

Ashley-Seal notched again at the start of the second-half to seal the win for the visitors.

Ben Morris, Ross Meldrum and Connor McKendry all went close for Blues.

The proceeds of the game went to EACH and Town's Academy Association.
