Arsenal have advanced to the fourth round of the Carabao Cup by eliminating Leicester City as guests. Most of Mikel Arteta’s team were with new players from Arsenal Academy, but that was enough to win the game and advance to the fourth round of the Carabao Cup
This was the main match of this district, as Arsenal would face the most difficult team in this competition.
The first half ended goalless, but Arsenal appeared dangerous from the first minutes where they hit the post with Nelson.
In the second half Arsenal was still more demanding but the goal came after a catastrophic mistake of Leicester defense.
It was a good penetration of Pepe, but the local defense in an attempt to clear the ball scores an own goal. Unfortunate in this case was Christian Fuchs in the 57th minute.
Leicester tried to get back in the game, made some substitutions but failed to score.
And when he does not score, he suffers.
Arsenal would find the second goal, which turned out to be the winning goal for them in the 91st minute of the match.
It was young Nketiah who scored after a penetration of Bellerine thus scoring the second goal and qualifying in the fourth round where he will face the winner of the match Lincoln City-Liverpool.
