We booked our place in the FA Youth Cup semi-finals after a dramatic 3-2 win over Cambridge United.
Cheered on by the Emirates faithful, our young Gunners started brightly with Seb Ferdinand causing problems down the left but we failed to trouble Tom Finch in the Cambridge goal.
Our positive play was rewarded shortly after when Myles Lewis-Skelly’s dazzling run ended with Ethan Nwaneri firing in a vicious strike from the edge of the box via a neat lay-off from Omari Benjamin.
We almost doubled our lead moments later but Benjamin’s header brushed the side netting from Lino Sousa’s pinpoint cross.
