U18s report | Arsenal 5-2 Chelsea

Jack Wilshere's young Gunners ended their season on a high with a commanding 5-2 victory over league leaders Chelsea on Saturday afternoon.

We began the game with energy, pressing high up the pitch and quickly gaining possession. However, Chido Martin Obi's two early attempts narrowly missed the target, denying us an early breakthrough.

Fifteen minutes into the game, Max Dowman set up Martin Obi, who was then fouled by Olutayo Subuloye inside the penalty area. Obi calmly stepped up and dispatched the penalty into the bottom corner, giving us the lead.

We continued to press for a second goal, with Cam'ron Ismail finding Theo Julienne on the edge of the box, but the latter’s shot was denied by Luke Campbell in the Chelsea goal.
