Norwich City v. Chelsea FC: FA Youth Cup 4th Round
Are you tried of the constant disappointment of the first team failing to meet your expectations? Then this is the game thread for you. Can the Youth Team continue their recent success in the Cup?
Chelsea Youth (4-3-3): Blackman - Nditi, Ake, Pappoe, Kane - Chalobah(c) - Baker, Swift - Piazon, Feruz, Affane
So fire up that Chelsea TV stream; it should be a good one. Holla back, young'ns!

Since there is the constant ghost flying around going on about
“Why the hell don’t we play the youngsters” I thought it would fit in your introduction perfectly – “Are you tired of watching the old guard playing again and again, underperforming”? LOL
Tor ilisar'thera'nal!
Agree with the commentators; there's a distinct lack of an audience
Makes Norwich’s stadium seem cavernous.
Now that I've decided I wanna have at least a glance at this
all I get is the screen will freeze after every 3 seconds :(
Tor ilisar'thera'nal!
Took 19 minutes, but Chelsea finally carve out an opening
Norwich keeper claims just ahead of Feruz from Nditi’s cross.
It’s all been scrappy and bit anxious at the back otherwise.
Which team is playing better?
Any particular stand-out players?

We've had the better chances
I wouldn’t say anybody’s stood out yet though, it has not been a flowing game by any means…Feruz & Piazon have been held quiet mostly, although they each made the Norwich keeper work at least once.
2nd Chelsea change: Super Talent Kiwomya ON; Affane OFF
He’s been the quietest of the forward three today.
The U18 backline looks more organized than the senior one typically does

15min down, 15 to go
Norwich almost steals it at the end of the period, but Blackman saves the free kick header well despite stranding himself in no-man’s land. Then Norwich, with the goal at their mercy, fail to put the resulting corner home.
And with his first touch, he almost sets up Kiwomya for the winner
But Kiwomya fails to get anything on the ball and the Norwich keeper collects
DOOOOOOON'T STOP...BELIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEVIN'!

Chalobah, Piazon, Kiwomya, Lewis Baker scoring
Norwich missed their first, Blackman saved their second and it was smooth sailing from there.
We win!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Welcome to the 21st century. Sadly, mobile commenting is not yet everything it’s cracked up to be…
Yeah
But my guess is that my already weak productivity at work just hit a new low
