Dobra on Target But Red-Carded as U23s Draw at Colchester Monday, 3rd Feb 2020 14:49 Armando Dobra scored and was later sent off as Town’s U23s drew 2-2 away against Colchester United at their Florence Park training ground this afternoon. The U’s went two in front with goals in the eighth and 29th minutes before Dobra hit back with a 31st minute shot which found the net off the inside of the post. The Albanian U19 also picked up his first yellow card for a foul before the break and 10 minutes after the restart the 18-year-old, who TWTD revealed on Friday was the subject of a rebuffed £350,000 bid from Premier League Brighton, picked up his second for another foul and then the inevitable red in the 55th minute.
Two minutes later, Tyreece Simpson levelled for the Blues when he rebounded a Ben Morris shot which had been saved by the home keeper. The Town youngsters put in an impressive display and were the better side throughout even when down to 10 men. Among the subs for the U’s was Town academy striker Lewis Reed, who is currently on trial at Colchester. U23s: Przybek, Alexander (Fehrenbach 60), O’Reilly (Oppong 73), McGavin, Andoh, Ndaba, Dobra, Hughes, Morris, Simpson (Curtis 76), Gibbs. Unused: Bort, Healy.
