At 16 years and 73 days old, Max Dowman cut past two Everton defenders and darted over 80 yards down the pitch toward an empty net, scoring his first goal for Arsenal and securing a 2-0 win over Everton on Saturday.
“It was a great moment, especially with the way the goal built up,” manager Mikel Arteta said. “We had 10 or 15 seconds to really enjoy what was about to happen. It was magical, all the bench and players together jumping up with the crowd, it was a beautiful day.”
