Chelsea clinch FA Youth Cup

Chelsea clinched the FA Youth Cup after a comprehensive 5-2 aggregate win over Manchester City.

Having won the first leg 3-1 in Manchester last week, the Blues were expected to have an easy run-out at Stamford Bridge but they suffered a scare when Kelechi Iheanacho put City in front after six minutes.

But goals from Izzy Brown and Tammy Abraham secured the tie in the presence of the club's owner Roman Abramovich and the Blues retained the trophy for the first time in 50 years thanks to the 2-1 second leg victory.

It was a fourth FA Youth Cup triumph in last six seasons for the Chelsea U18s and it comes two weeks after they clinched the UEFA Youth League in Switzerland.
