Holders Villa make it through

Holders Villa make it through to the FA Youth Cup fifth round and a home tie with Southend or Wrexham after surviving a late scare at Fleetwood. The hosts took a 1-0 lead into the half-time interval, but Villa bossed the game throughout the second half, scoring three goals without reply through Bradley Burrowes (brace) and Jack McGrath, before Fleetwood were awarded a stoppage-time penalty, which they duly converted. Villa held on in the North West for a fine victory.

Scorer(s): Bradley Burrowes | 52’ | 65’ | Jack McGrath | 60’ |

Assist(s): Teddie Bloomfield | 60’ | Markie Meade | 65’ |
