Jack Wilshere's youthful Gunners kicked off 2024 in thrilling fashion, clinching a dramatic victory over Aston Villa—a match that saw us being awarded three penalties!
Heading into the new year, our under-18s had maintained an unbeaten streak since October, clinching victories in five of our last six games.
The match opened with a burst of energy from our side, as we displayed clear intention from the start. The first notable attempt came when Omari Benjamin was cleverly played in behind, only to see his shot narrowly miss the target.
Maintaining our dominance, we earned a penalty when Ismeal Kabia was brought down in the box.
