Academy Action: All the weekend's goals and quotes

There were plenty of goals during an unbeaten weekend for our academy sides, as our under-21s recorded a worthy win over Everton and our under-18s battled well for a point away in Manchester.

U21s: Arsenal 3-1 Everton

Mehmet Ali's side solidified our spot at the top of Premier League 2 with our sixth win of the season on Sunday afternoon. We went ahead very early at Meadow Park when Marquinhos picked out Catalin Cirjan, who turned his defender and guided a left-footed strike into the bottom corner.

Following a momentary loss in focus, Everton equalised against the run of play but we retook the lead only ten minutes later.
