Match report: Derby County 2-2 Arsenal U-23s
Derby County Under 23 C. Martin (44) A. Babos (60) WHAT HAPPENED
Our under-23s sealed a late comeback as they fought back from two goals down to secure a 2-2 draw with Derby County at Pride Park.
Mazeed Ogungbo made his first ever start at under-23 level, filling in for the injured Tolaji Bola, while Tyreece John-Jules was tasked with leading the line, one week on from that stunning backheel volley at Emirates Stadium.
It was a quiet first half with little to separate the two sides, but on the stroke of half-time, Derby County took the lead through Chris Martin, who fired a free-kick over the wall and into the top corner from just outside the area.
