Manchester United youngsters recreate iconic 2011 scene after FA Youth Cup triumph

Manchester United's Under-18s replicated an iconic photograph following their 3-1 FA Youth Cup final win over Nottingham Forest at Old Trafford on Wednesday night.

Travis Binnion's side got their hands on the trophy following an entertaining clash with Forest, in which Alejandro Garnacho scored two late goals to seal a historic win for the United youngsters. The Argentine scored twice in the closing stages after Joshua Powell had cancelled out skipper Rhys Bennett's 13th minute header.

Garnacho put United 2-1 up with just 12 minutes of normal time remaining, converting a controversial penalty, before he added his second and the home side's third in stoppage time. It capped off a memorable evening in front of a crowd of more than 70,000 people inside Old Trafford.
