In form forward Byron Moore fired a brace in the Under-18's most impressive victory of the season.
The Stoke born striker netted his tenth and eleventh goals of the campaign as the Alex produce a superb 3-2 victory at Manchester United's Carrington Training Ground, in a game which was featured live on satellite channel MUTV.

Farquharson - Added to his seasons tally

Following the 3-3 draw with West Bromwich Albion earlier in the week, the Alex were involved in another high scoring fixture, but were always in control against the home side leading 2-0 and 3-1 before a late United fight back brought the scores closer to make an interesting final quarter.
As well as Moore continuing his hot streak in front of goal, strike partner Nick Farquharson was again on the scoresheet, collecting his eighth strike of the season.
Crewe's final league fixture before the winter break comes on Saturday, when they entertain Liverpool at Reaseheath, before the Railwaymen travel to Cambridge United in the FA Youth Cup on Thursday 14 December.
