Norwich City Under-18s fell to a 5-1 defeat away to Chelsea in their penultimate fixture of the 2024/25 Under-18 Premier League South.
Chelsea went ahead after nine minutes as the home side were awarded a penalty. Chizaram Ezenwata converted from the spot to give the Blues an early lead.
They would only be ahead for five minutes, however, as Finlay Corke finished well from a long throw to lift the ball over the goalkeeper and equalise for the Canaries.
Walter Nutter restored Chelsea's lead just before the half-hour mark as they would go into half-time with the lead.
Five minutes into the second half, the Blues added a third goal as Reggie Walsh scored.
And late on, Sol Gordon scored twice to stretch Chelsea's lead.
The Under-18s end their season next weekend at home to West Ham United (KO 12pm).
