FA Youth Cup Final: Date, Venue, Tickets & Everything We Know So Far | OneFootball

Manchester United U18s play Nottingham Forest U18s in this year’s FA Youth Cup final – here’s everything you need to know regarding the fixture.

United will be looking to achieve glory in the Youth Cup for the first time since their infamous 2011 win, which saw the likes of Paul Pogba, Jesse Lingard and Ravel Morrison defeating Harry Maguire’s Sheffield United youth side at Old Trafford.

Nottingham Forest are a surprise team to feature in this final, they managed a remarkable comeback from 1-0 down scoring three goals in as little as seven minutes in order to beat Chelsea 3-1 to secure their place in the final with a shot at some silverware.

There will be some absolutely superb talent on show in this year’s final. For Manchester United, the main superstar in the side has to be Alejandro Garnacho – who has just been called up to Argentina’s national team alongside Lionel Messi. I think that says it all.

As for Nottingham Forest, their player to watch out for is Detlef Osong. The young English forward has been in fine form all season and will be keen to prove what he can do in a big final. He was instrumental in Forest’s brilliant comeback in the semi – so will be looking to have a similar impact against United.
