We were approached by Spain's Glen Hoddle Academy for a friendly through the pre-season, and although I had already arranged matches at that time, I thought it would be a good way to scout out and expose the team to some spanish flair. Lewis was the standout with 3 early assists that could have easily beeen goals for himself. Either way, 11-0 is an awesome confidence builder right before the season gets underway.
