West Ham United's under-18s missed the chance to complete a treble on Wednesday night with a 2-1 defeat to Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium.
West Ham had led in the first half when captain Gideon Kodua opened the scoring on the half hour mark, but with 15 minutes of normal time to go, hosts City levelled through Justin Oboavwoduo's header. In extra-time, Oboavwoduo struck again to put City 2-1 up, denying West Ham's under-18s of a third trophy this year and a place in next season's UEFA Youth League.
