It is the second occasion the club has retained the crown after back-to-back successes in 1960 and 1961. The Blues carried a 3-1 first-leg advantage into Monday evening's Stamford Bridge meeting but saw their aggregate advantage halved early on as Kelechi Iheanacho put Manchester City ahead. The visitors' lead on the night lasted just 13 minutes as Izzy Brown's header found the back of the net, before Tammy Abraham extended the aggregate lead to three goals in the opening minute of the second period with a precise finish. After that the tie was seen out comfortably. == Team news == Under-18s manager Joe Edwards made just one change from the first leg as Jeremie Boga replaced Ruben Sammut in the side. Boga started in the number 10 midfield role in front of captain Charlie Colkett and Charly Musonda in midfield. Dominic Solanke led the line up front supported from out wide by Abraham and Brown, while the back five remained unchanged with Bradley Collins in goal protected by Ola Aina, Fikayo Tomori, Jake Clarke-Salter and Jay Dasilva. Man City made two changes from the first leg last week in Manchester as Marcus Wood and Iheanacho replaced Manuel Garcia and Isaac Buckley-Ricketts. == First half == As in the first leg a week previously, it was a lively start at the Bridge with two goals inside the opening 20 minutes. City halved the deficit in the final early on with their first meaningful attack. Aaron Nemane used his pace to escape down the right and whipped in a dangerous cross that striker Kelechi Iheanacho poked in beyond Collins. The young Blues responded well and threatened with a series of crosses into the box and set-piece deliveries. It was from the latter that they levelled as Colkett's in-swinging corner was met by Brown and the forward's thumping header flew past a despairing attempt at a clearance on the line from Bersant Celina. Chances continued to be carved at both ends in an open start as Boga had a powerful shot blocked well by Tosin Adarabioyo, and then Collins made an excellent save down low to his left to push Iheanacho's header away from danger. Iheanacho brought a routine save from Collins before Celina fired wide from a good position 20 yards out after the visitors had won possession high up the field. Jason Wilcox's side were growing stronger as the half wore on and Collins saved again, this time from Barker, after Tomori's sliding challenge had come back off the winger. Down the other end, Colkett fashioned a sight at goal with a neat turn in the box as he received a pass from Abraham. His close-range effort was blocked and Solanke's low drive narrowly missed the target in the final minute of the half. == Second half == The Blues landed a killer punch within a minute of the restart as they stretched the aggregate advantage to three. Abraham fired a warning shot over the bar after seven seconds before he found the back of the net moments later. Solanke picked up the ball from Brown, found the forward's run from the right wing and Abraham did the rest as he guided his shot into the far corner for his 39th goal of the season in all competitions. Abraham arrowed a shot over from a tight angle before Clarke-Salter headed inches wide from a corner as the Cup holders took control of the game. Solanke would have got on the end of Abraham's low cross but for goalkeeper Kjetil Haug's intervention. City did manage to get the ball in the back of the net again after 75 minutes but substitute Buckley-Ricketts's header was ruled out for a push on Clarke-Salter, and the hosts were able to keep a good shape and threaten on the break for the remainder of the game. Substitute Ruben Sammut went close on one such counter-attack, picking the ball up from Solanke and striking a shot inches wide of the far post. That proved to be the evening's final action as Edwards and his players celebrated another merited win and memorable night for the Academy.
