Arsenal’s Player of the Match in Wednesday’s Carabao Cup Round 4 match at Preston North End was Ethan Nwaneri.
On Thursday, Arsenal’s X handle declared Nwaneri their Player of the Match.
In the Gunners’ 3-0 victory over Preston, Nwaneri scored one of the goals, continuing his outstanding scoring performance in the Cup competition.
The 17-year-old bent in a superb curler from outside the box to put Arsenal 2-0 up in the first half, after Gabriel Jesus had broken the deadlock.
It was another stand-out Carabao Cup performance from the academy product, who got his first senior goals with a brace in Arsenal’s 5-1 win over Bolton in the previous round.
He was thrown into the action by Mikel Arteta in last weekend’s Premier League clash with Liverpool at the Emirates and didn’t look out of place.
