Nottingham Forest sent 'bright future' message after Chelsea comeback in FA Youth Cup

Nottingham Forest supporters are over the moon after witnessing the under-18s reach the FA Youth Cup final after pulling off a comeback win over Chelsea.

The win was sealed in dramatic fashion after Forest first levelled five minutes from time to cancel out Chelsea's opener just after the hour mark. The Young Reds then added two more for good measure with 90 minutes on the clock to stun to west London side.

The result has prompted Reds fans to laud the club from top to bottom. Here is a selection of the social media reaction as Forest secure their place in the final.
