U-23s: Swansea 1-1 Arsenal - How it happened

We extended our unbeaten run to eight Premier League 2 fixtures on Friday night as we were held to a 1-1 draw with Swansea City.

We started on the front foot and enjoyed the greater share of possession in the opening stages, but it was the hosts who had the first sight of goal.

Botti Biabi tried his luck from the edge of the box following a powerful run, before watching on as Zech Medley blocked his goal-bound effort.

We regained control of the game and played some intricate football on the edge of the Swansea box, but we couldn’t break them down - and just four minutes before half-time, Brandon Cooper opened the scoring.
