Crushed in Chaos: Arsenal U18s Suffer a 6-1 Mauling at Ruthless Stoke City
Arsenal’s under-18s endured a difficult afternoon as they suffered a 6-1 defeat to Stoke City in their second Premier League Cup fixture. Despite Kyran Thompson giving the Gunners an early lead from the penalty spot, the hosts quickly turned the tide, with Lewis Bailey and Tom Midwood each scoring twice to hand Stoke a dominant victory. The result leaves Arsenal third in Group A, setting up a decisive final match against Norwich City later in November.
