Report: Birmingham City U18s 3-0 Bristol City U18s

Trevor Challis’ side found themselves behind early on, although Zac Smith came within a whisker of equalising with a headed effort before half-time.

The Blues made it 2-0 soon after the restart, before a crucial moment in the game.

City looked to reduce the deficit when substitute Kieran Smith raced clear of the defence, but he couldn’t beat the keeper.

And Birmingham completed the scoring before the end to give the final scoreline a very one-sided look.

City Under-18s: Begovic, Turner-Williams, Webb, Z.Smith, Ali, Turner, Rees (K.Smith), Harry Smith, V.Harper (Spark), Day, Mortimore.
