Still a season to be proud of
It's City's first defeat of 2025 that means our Under-18s were unable to win historic back-to-back FA Youth Cup titles.
But there is still silverware to be won for Reiss' side. We have the Under-18 Premier League National final still to come with out opponents yet to be confirmed.
FT
FULL-TIME
It ends in defeat.
90+4'
Final push
City have Villa pinned back and all 11 men behind the ball.
But we just can't get past all the bodies.
Whatmuff is on the halfway line in support.
90+2
Villa change
Burrowes makes way for Mulley.
90+2'
Fletcher curls one over
Thomas is played in behind and he chooses to nod the ball back to Fletcher.
After evading two late challenges, the City forward is unfortunate to see his effort go over.
90'
Five minutes added
We enter the final few minutes.
89'
SO CLOSE!
Great link-up play by Mukasa and Warhurst ends with a Warhurst shot but Bloomfield manages to clear the ball off the line.
86'
Villa change
Cotcher is replaced by Jenner.
