Newcastle United Under-18s 2 Nottingham Forest Under-18s 1

Jude Cogdon's free-kick fired the Toon teenagers into a first-half lead at the Magpies' Little Benton Academy before a dramatic finale unfollowed as Forest drew level in stoppage-time following Spencer Sutton's strike.

Newcastle's youngsters, however, regained their lead in the dying stages courtesy of O'Donovan's effort as Chris Moore's side returned to winning ways, moving into fifth place of the table in the process.
