The young Reds were a goal down at the break in the U18 Premier League North contest after Mateus Mane's opener in the 30th minute.
But their response in the second half was brilliant and they were back level on the hour mark when Rio Ngumoha set up Afolami Onanuga.
A poacher's finish from Josh Sonni-Lambie seven minutes later then saw the visitors snatch the lead, which was preserved by several Bailey Hall saves towards the end.
