Norwich City U18s fall to 2-1 defeat by Chelsea

Norwich City Under-18s lost out in a close 2-1 loss to Chelsea at the Lotus Training Centre on Saturday afternoon, despite a dominant second half.

The Blues had a controlling first half and found two goals as a result, seeing City's strong finish fall just short of any points.

Chelsea found the first chance of the game through Silko Thomas in the first five minutes, the forward setting Joe Haigh up with a squared pass across the face of goal, missing the open target.

But Haigh made up for that mistake shortly after in the seventh-minute, taking a shot from far out and finding the back of the net past Sam Blair for an early Chelsea lead.
