On Wednesday night, Arsenal's young talent, Ethan Nwaneri, shone brightly as he scored two goals against Bolton Wanderers in the third-round Carabao Cup clash at the Emirates. It was a historic moment for the club as four of their players made their debut in a competitive game at the Emirates, all of whom were born after the stadium opened in 2006.
In preparation for the match, manager Mikel Arteta made some changes to the starting line-up, with 16-year-old Jack Porter taking on the role of goalkeeper. Alongside him were three other young players, Myles Lewis-Skelly, Josh Nichols, and the star of the night, Ethan Nwaneri. These four players were not only making their mark in Arsenal history, but also receiving support and praise from former Gunners goalkeeper, Aaron Ramsdale, and their manager, Arteta.
Speaking of Lewis-Skelly, Arteta highlighted his competitive nature and versatility, with the ability to play in three different positions. He also praised his intelligence and thoroughness, stating that he constantly asks the right questions and has a hunger to succeed at this level.
In the match against Bolton, Nichols played a crucial role in Arsenal's opening goal, with his low cross finding its way to Declan Rice, who scored. But it was Nwaneri who stole the show, scoring two goals and securing Arsenal's victory with a final score of 3-0. It was a proud moment for the club, and a testament to the talent and determination of these young players.
