U-18s: Aston Villa 0-2 Arsenal - How it happened

We sealed a dominant 2-0 win over Aston Villa at Bodymoor Heath on Saturday thanks to goals from Sam Greenwood and Ben Cotrell.

We fired four past the Villans on the opening day of the season, and once again, we started in similar attacking fashion.

Following a flowing move from back to front, Greenwood received the ball on the edge of the box and beat his marker, before firing a powerful left-footed effort into the top corner.

The 17-year-old has now scored six goals in 12 league appearances this season.

Shortly after, however, Arthur Okonkwo was called into action following a spell of possession for the hosts.
