Nmecha urging Man City kids to grab FAYC semi chance

Wolfsburg midfielder Lukas Nmecha has urged Manchester City's youngsters to grab their chance in the FA Youth Cup.

City meet Bristol City in the semifinal this week.

Nmecha twice reached the final with City, losing to twice to Chelsea.

He told City's website: In the Youth Cup there were a lot of good players in that team.

Brahim Diaz, Jadon Sancho and quite a few players who are still having good careers. Now is the time, I'm 25, they're like 22, 23, now they're starting to be seen a lot more.

We did really well. Chelsea, at that age, were still a bit more physically developed. A bit stronger a bit faster here and there.

We did well to get to the final, but in the final they were just better to be fair.

It's nice [to see former team-mates do well].

My brother is doing well now at Dortmund and the opportunities are definitely there and it's a good foundation [at City] technically and tactically for that type of football."
