U18s report: Fulham 1-0 Arsenal

Our 18s fell to a narrow 1-0 defeat to Fulham at Mostpur Park on Saturday morning.

We began the game dictating possession, with much of the play unfolding in Fulham’s half. Despite our dominance, clear-cut opportunities remained elusive.

However, it was the hosts who nearly broke the deadlock first, as Farhan Ali-Wahid took aim at our goal. Jack Porter, making his debut for the under-18s, pulled off an incredible save to deflect Ali-Wahid's effort onto the post.

Our first opportunity arose when Louie Copley found Ismeal Kabia with a delightful pass on the right-hand side. Kabia skillfully navigated past two defenders but was denied by a solid save.
