Arsenal manage to navigate EFL Cup without damaging Premier League title bid in win over Brighton
LONDON -- If Arsenal are going to hang around in the EFL Cup, this is the way to do it. No key men were risked, squad players got much-needed reps and Hale End's finest made the right impression. That all this came with a berth in the quarterfinals of this competition makes it that fraction better.
Ethan Nwaneri put Arsenal ahead early in the second half and Bukayo Saka came off the bench to seal the win late on. Before both goals, it was Max Dowman that caught the eye on a night when he made history by becoming the youngest player ever to start a first-team game for Arsenal.
Arsenal host Brighton in the Carabao Cup with Mikel Arteta ’s side flying at the top of the Premier League. The Gunners are desperate for silverware though, after a five-year drought since the FA Cup victory over Chelsea, with another solid victory last weekend over Crystal Palace.
