Charlton Athletic U18s 2-1 West Ham United U18s
West Ham United Under-18s' six-match unbeaten run came to an end with defeat at Charlton Athletic on Saturday.
After an even opening 45 minutes, the hosts took the lead midway through the second half. Tony Carr's side hit back soon after, though, with Robert Hall's third goal in two games.
Jack Werndly went close to putting the Hammers ahead with two chances in quick succession. The 16-year-old could not quite convert a one-on-one with the goalkeeper before heading a Hall cross into the ground and over the bar.
It was not to be West Ham's day though, as Charlton sealed the points with a winner in the 80th minute.
Carr said: "We conceded two poor goals and missed two good chances. It's a game we shouldn't have lost but if you don't do the basics right you lose the game and we didn't do the basics well enough."
West Ham United: Loveday, Barrett (Modelski 70), Smith, Craig, Brown, Lampe, Moncur (Okus 80), Wearen, Abdulla (Wearndly 70), Hall, Montano
