Arsenal triumph in FA Youth Cup Final

Last night saw over 33,000 people come to support the Arsenal youth team in the final of the FA Youth Cup against Liverpool. Unlike our opponents, Arsenal were made up of young English players with the exception of Coquelin and Sunu. This was truly an Arsenal academy team.

 Liverpool started brightly, relying upon the strength of their Finnish striker Dalla Valle, but Arsenal's defence, marshalled by Kyle Bartley and Coquelin in front of the back four kept Liverpool at bay.
