Two first-half goals by schoolboy Islam Feruz condemned the young Canaries to defeat in their FA Premier Academy League match.

The in-form Blues recorded their fourth straight victory at Cobham training centre, taking a 23rd-minute lead through Feruz.

Ten minutes later, he doubled Chelsea's advantage and left the Canaries with an uphill task.

City's best opening fell to Josh Murphy, who scored a hat-trick against Dereham Town in the Norfolk Senior Cup in midweek, but the youngster was unable to finish after going through one-on-one with the Chelsea 'keeper.

City next face Ipswich in a derby at Colney on Saturday (11am).

• Norwich City Under-18s: Matthews, Florence, McFadden, McKenzie, Barker, Kelly, Clunan, McGeehan, Hall-Johnson, Josh Murphy, Jacob Murphy. Subs: Cable, Loza, Norman, Lokko, Carroll.
