Arsenal secured a place in the next round of the FA Cup with a victory over Mansfield, but it was the contributions of two 16-year-olds that stole the headlines.
Teenagers Max Dowman and Marli Salmon made history during the match, becoming the youngest players to feature for the club in the competition.
Manager Mikel Arteta praised the youngsters after the game, acknowledging that while the team needed experienced players to come off the bench to secure the win, the teenagers' performances were a highlight.
