Leicester City's Under-18s came from behind to overcome Reading 2-1 in U18 Premier League South on Saturday.

The young Foxes extended their unbeaten run to four matches with victory at LCFC Training Ground, but had to do it the hard way after conceding early on. Joe Barough broke the deadlock for the Royals just seven minutes in.

Celebrating Ryan Donnelly's late winner in Seagrave.

Recovering from that setback in the second half, via Kirsten Otchere's equaliser shortly after the interval and then substitute Ryan Donnelly's winner 10 minutes from time, sees the side coached by Adam Barradell sit seventh place in the table.

Next up, City travel to Brighton & Hove Albion at AMEX Elite Football Performance Centre on Saturday 13 April (11am BST kick-off).

City: Bausor; Aluko (Dyke 88'), Khela (Monga 75'), McAlinney, Ali; Neale, Ononaye; J. Evans, Page (Donnelly 70'), Pending (Gray 52'); Otchere.
