Max Porter reflects on Enfield Town loss

Arsenal Under-21s coach Max Porter gave an update on pre-season progress so far, after his side were defeated 2-0 by National League South outfit Enfield Town.

Despite team errors leading to the two conceded goals, Porter took positives from the young Gunners' trip to Queen Elizabeth II Stadium.

On the overall performance...

"Mixed. We fought against a direct, physical team. We competed well and dealt with a lot of their direct play I was really happy with that. It was a challenge that we said to the players that they needed to improve for their careers.
