Fleetwood Town’s Under-23s played out a 0-0 draw against Premier League side Burnley on Wednesday afternoon.
Stephen Crainey’s youngsters took the game to their topflight hosts for large periods of the affair but had to settle for a 0-0 statement following some resolute defending from the home side.
The game saw the likes of Barry Baggley, Ryan Rydel, Chris Conn-Clarke, and Carl Johnston star, while senior pair Glenn Whelan and Mark Duffy continued their returns from injury.
Under-18s defender Lewis Patterson gained an invaluable 90-minute experience while The Cod Army, being watched by a number of first-team staff, cast an eye over four trialists.
