Guiseley 0, Middlesbrough XI 2

Guiseley were beaten 2-0 in their opening friendly against a youthful but experienced Middlesbrough side after two late goals from the visitors.

Boro broke the deadlock in the 82nd minute through Jake Fowler, before Dutchman Marvin Emnes – signed for more than £3million – doubled the lead in the penultimate minute.
