A goal from Felix Nmecha was enough for Manchester City to claim the Under-18 Premier League Cup, beating Middlesbrough 1-0.
The forward struck in the opening minute of the second half on Teesside, cutting in from the left before scoring from a narrow angle.
Before a crowd of 1,644 at the Riverside, Boro pressed for an equaliser but could not prevent City from lifting the trophy won for the first time by Chelsea last season.
