Manchester United confirm Old Trafford sell-out for Nottingham Forest FA Youth Cup final

Manchester United have confirmed there will be a sell-out crowd for Wednesday evening's FA Youth Cup final against Nottingham Forest.

Forest's under-18 side will face the Red Devils, with both sets of youngsters set to play in front of a packed out Old Trafford crowd as they bid to lift the coveted trophy. Warren Joyce's side have reached the final of the competition for the first time in Forest's history, but will be hoping to go one step further when they head to Manchester for the rare opportunity to play in front of a sold out Old Trafford crowd (kick off 7:30pm).

United's official website confirmed on Tuesday evening that more than 70,000 tickets have been sold for the match, including 6,000 away fans. Tickets for the fixture were sold for just £1 and all the proceeds went towards the Manchester United Foundation, with the aim of helping disadvantaged children across Greater Manchester.
