Youngsters join squad in Portugal
Published: 29 July, 2014 by Stuart Vose
Development squad members set for another opportunity in tonight's friendly.
Following their game against Boston United over the weekend, a number of members of the under-21 side linked up with Sunderland's first team squad on the Algarve.
The youngsters, who have been joined by coach Robbie Stockdale, impressed against Carlisle and Hartlepool and will now be given an opportunity to play in Portugal.
Mikael Mandron scored the winner against the Cumbrians at Brunton Park before an U21 side produced a superb performance after being introduced in the second half at Hartlepool, scoring three goals without reply.
Tonight's opponents finished eighth in the Spanish second division last year and are managed by Jose Luis Oltra.
The game is the first of two in as many days for Gus Poyet's side, who face Madeira-based Portuguese outfit CD Nacional on Wednesday evening.
Nacional finished fifth in the Portuguese top flight last season, qualifying for the UEFA Europa League.
The 10-day trip will then be rounded off with a third game, against Portuguese top-flight side Vitoria Setubal on Saturday.
Your official website will be carrying full coverage, including a live blog and social updates from the Estadio Muncipal de Albufeira, plus full post-match reaction and highlights.
A one-minute video round-up will be available in the hours following the game, with 10 minutes of extended highlights to follow on Wednesday.

I reckon we've mis-heard the instructions and we're supposed to be meeting them on a sun kissed Portugal beach for a barefoot footy tournament.

Anybody remember the last time we played them in a friendly???
Seem to remember a game at bp in the early noughties when reddy or proctor I think it was had a shocker in front of goal and it finished 0-1. I think. We then ended up signing reddy a couple of years after
Anyone remember what the score was???

| Christ you all wanted him sacked a few months ago. 6th place finish and he's now the messiah and can do no wrong Update: I think I've got this right - He was the messiah. He then wasn't. He then was again. Then it turned out he actually wasnt. He turned into one big huge messiah again. Now he's not actually the messiah we thought he was . Now I'm hoping he rises again quickly |
