Tom Dele-Bashiru was among the scorers in Manchester City's 3-2 win over Blackburn Rovers in the U18 Premier League on Saturday afternoon.
Trailing by a goal, manager Lee Carsley introduced the attacking midfielder in the 79th minute and the change ultimately paid dividends, with the Nigerian leveling the tie six minutes later.
Dele-Bashiru's goal against Rovers was his fifth goal in the league this season and the sixth time he has found the net in all competitions.
