U18s report: Middlesbrough 0-1 Arsenal

Related Topics: Middlesbrough, Arsenal

We clinched our first victory in the Premier League Cup with a narrow 1-0 away triumph against Middlesbrough on Saturday morning.

The first ten minutes of the match were marked by caution, as both teams tested the waters. It was during this period that our first glimmer of opportunity emerged, courtesy of Louie Copley. He cleverly carved out space within the box, but his strike was met by Shea Connor.

While the home side managed a couple of half-hearted attempts, they failed to venture into dangerous territory to seriously Noah Cooper.

As the game progressed, we gradually asserted our control.
