Arsenal's Max Dowman impressed manager Mikel Arteta as he became the club's youngest starter at just 15 years and 302 days in Wednesday's 2-0 League Cup win over Brighton & Hove Albion, earning the coach's praise for his impact in the game.

Dowman, who has been at the club since 2015, made his senior debut off the bench earlier this season, before breaking Jack Porter's record for being the youngest starter.

Goalkeeper Porter started in the League Cup last year when he was 16 years and 72 days old.

Right-winger Dowman made the most dribbles and won the most fouls and duels as Arsenal registered their eighth straight victory in all competitions.
