Under 18s: Arsenal 1-0 West Ham United

Arsenal Under-18s cemented their place at the top of the Premier Academy League with a slender victory over West Ham on Saturday morning.

Free-scoring captain Jay Emmanuel-Thomas’ goal on the stroke of half time was enough to seal his side’s fifth home win in six games.

Steve Bould’s boys are now eight points clear at the top of the table with a game in hand.
