Our young Gunners bounced back from last week's Youth Cup disappointment with an emphatic 4-0 victory over Leicester City on Saturday morning.

With goals from Michal Rosiak, Chido Obi-Martin, and a brace from Osman Kamara, our team secured an impressive fourth consecutive league win.

The team initiated their attacking prowess within the first five minutes, as Michal Rosiak's precise delivery met Will Sweet's head, although Sweet was unable to find the target. 

The breakthrough came a minute later when Rosiak curled in a delightful free-kick from 20 yards, netting his sixth goal of the season - remarkably four of them have been from free-kicks.

Keeping up the positive momentum, the team came close to adding another goal. Luis Brown found Dan Casey in space, but Casey's effort curled just wide of the post.

After the break, Wilshere's side continued their dominance, doubling the lead when Osman Kamara picked himself up after being fouled to convert a confidently dispatched spot-kick.

Shortly after, the tally increased as Rosiak played a defence-splitting pass for Kamara to calmly slot it into the far corner, securing his second goal of the game.

The team's fluid and effective attacking display was further highlighted late in the game when Chido Obi-Martin added a fourth goal through a cleverly executed short free-kick move. 

 

WHAT IT MEANS

Our fourth consecutive league win takes us to third in the league with 24 points after 12 games played.

 

WHAT’S NEXT

We’re back in cup action, this time in the Premier League Cup quarter-final where we travel to Manchester United on Saturday, February 3.

Kick-off at Carrington is at 11am (UK).
