Kyle cracks Stoke double

of Man in a pre-season friendly on Saturday.

Lightbourne turned in a James O'Connor cross to open the scoring in the 25th minute and rifled his second into the roof of the net from an inviting cross by Stefan Thorardson 10 minutes later.

The Bermudian striker was substituted after 54 minutes and O'Connor and Thorardson (two) scored the remaining Stoke goals.

Shaun Goater is still on the injured list, but his club Manchester City managed to win without him, triumphing 3-0 at Gillingham with goals by Mark Kennedy (two) and Leon Mike.

Kyle Lightbourne: Two goals in friendly against Isle of Man.
