Travis Binnion’s young Reds rose to the occasion in front of a remarkable record-breaking 67,492 crowd at the Theatre of Dreams.
Rhys Bennett's early goal and Alejandro Garnacho's second-half double secured a victory over the hard-working Forest side.
Everyone at United is immensely proud to see this young side win a record-extending 11th FA Youth Cup. It is our first triumph in the tournament since 2011, when current first-team players Jesse Lingard and Paul Pogba were involved.
Captain Rhys Bennett’s powerful 13th-minute header from a clipped Sam Murray free-kick cross put United in front. The centre-back was alive to the cute ball over the Forest defence and got down to power it past Aaron Bott before tearing away in passionate celebration.
