Aston Villa U18 v Arsenal U18

Arsenal Under-18s continued their search for a win after they struck late to salvage a 1-1 draw at Aston Villa's Bodymoor Heath training ground.

Frans de Kat's side have now gone eight games without a victory, a run that dates back to September when the young Gunners beat Fulham 3-2.

Arsenal's defence held out better than it had done on that occasion but they could not prevent Harry McKirdy from breaking the deadlock with 10 minutes to go.

This sparked the De Kat's side into action and they soon had an equaliser when Josh Da Silva found the net in the 87th minute to share the spoils.
