Man City beaten by Aston Villa in FA Youth Cup final
Manchester City's under-18s side missed out on winning the FA Youth Cup for a second successive season after being beaten 3-1 by Aston Villa in Monday's final.
City have already won the league title this season and made the perfect start as Matty Warhurst converted in the second minute, but Villa provided a fine response.
TJ Carroll levelled just two minutes later, before goals from Cole Brannigan and Jamaldeen Jimoh-Aloba gave Villa a fifth triumph in the competition.
City play their final game of the regular Premier League Under-18 North campaign with a trip to Newcastle on Saturday (kick-off 10:30 BST).
Villa, meanwhile, host Leicester on Thursday and then Arsenal on Sunday in their section.

Tijjani Reijnders ‘really excited' to link up with Man City for Club World Cup
The 26-year-old Netherlands midfielder has agreed a five-year contract to move to City from AC Milan for 55million euros (approximately £46million) and told Italian media he had spent Sunday conducting a medical with Pep Guardiola's side. City will play their first match of the Club World Cup against Morocco's Wydad AC on June 18 and the arrival of Reijnders could also impact the future of Jack Grealish at the Etihad. First win secured on the road to 2026. 🇳🇱🌎#FINNED — Tijjani Reijnders (@T_Reijnders) June 8, 2025 Reijnders told Gazzetta: 'The medical? I couldn't wait to do it. The plan is to take part at the Club World Cup with City. I'm really excited about that. 'Doing that means I'll get to know my new team-mates sooner.' Reijnders was a bright spark in a disappointing season for Milan, who only finished eighth in Serie A, missing out on qualification for Europe. Reijnders, who joined the Italian giants from AZ Alkmaar in the summer of 2023, scored 15 goals in 2024-25 and will bolster Guardiola's midfield options following the departure of Kevin De Bruyne. As first reported by the Daily Telegraph on Wednesday, England international Grealish looks set to miss out on City's final 35-man squad for the Club World Cup. The 29-year-old was not summoned from the bench in last month's FA Cup final defeat by Crystal Palace and omitted from the squad for the last game of the season at Fulham altogether.
