Nketiah hails Arsenal’s ‘mature performance’ against Portsmouth

Eddie Nketiah commended Arsenal for producing a "mature" performance in Monday’s 2-0 FA Cup win against Portsmouth.

The Gunners went into this encounter on the back of their Europa League exit to Olympiacos, however, they earned a quarter-final berth at the expense of the League One team.

Sokratis Papastathopoulos put Mikel Arteta’s men ahead in the first half before Nketiah doubled the lead in the 51st minute thanks to Reiss Nelson’s cross.

The youngster- who now boasts of three goals in his last four starts for the Gunners was quick to laud the performance of his youthful side, while expressing his delight with his strike.
