City's Academy 18 side went down 2-1 with Rafiq Kaeed scoring for the Bluebirds.

Highlights of this game are now on Cardiff City World.

Coach Geraint Twose said: "The boys deserved better. We set out our game plan and the team stuck to it. They played exceptionally well and deserved to have won. Forest scored from the only chances they had in the match. Last season there were far too many games when we played well as a team and lost. We now have to get into a winning habit and that's the one thing we're working on. There are lots of positives to work on from the match with Forest and we will work from there."
