Ex-Manchester United 19yo shines for Arsenal again in EFL Trophy win

The 19-year-old former Manchester United player has been a standout performer for Arsenal's under-21 team in the EFL Trophy match against Leyton Orient. Despite losing several key players to the senior team's League Cup squad, Arsenal's youth side still managed to secure a 2-1 victory. The match was tense, with Orient taking the lead in the 25th minute through Nicholas Oyekunle's header, but Arsenal equalized just before halftime via Archie Stevens' impressive header.

Both teams had opportunities to take the lead again, but Arsenal's goalkeeper Khari Ranson made crucial saves throughout the second half, including a double save early on. The young striker Andre Harriman-Annous sealed the win with a close-range finish after a save from Ranson. Manager David Horseman praised his team's performance, emphasizing the importance of staying high defensively to control the game.

With this win, Arsenal's under-21s are currently second in the group, giving them a chance to progress to the knockout stage in their next match against Wimbledon on October 27th.
