Arsenal footballers defeated Ispwich Town in the English League Cup match

In one of the top matches of the 1/16 finals of the English League Cup, Arsenal defeated Ipswich Town 4: 2. It's reported by sb.by.

The London club expectedly had an advantage and issued an exit to the next stage of the competition. Although the hosts of the field, to give them credit, did not stew at all and made one of the best teams in England seriously worried.

The Gunners scored Max Dauman twice (7th, 47th minutes), Noni Madueke (16) and Mikel Merino (58). And Ipswich Town responded with goals from Anis Mehmeti (62) and Chuba Akpom (90+1).

Dauman distinguished himself at the age of 16 years 258 days and became the second in the list of the youngest goal-takers in the history of the tournament. The record holder is another Arsenal player - Cesc Fabregas (16 years 212 days). Dauman is also the second player to score a double for an English Premier League club at the age of 16. The first in his time was Wayne Rooney, to whom a similar achievement was conquered by Everton.

The barrier of the 1/16 final of the English League Cup has so far been overcome by Sunderland, Bradford City, Crystal Palace, Bournemouth, Newcastle, Chelsea, Peterborough United, Fulham, Brentford, Liverpool and Arsenal.

Five matches of the stage are scheduled for September 16-17.

Last season, the winner of this tournament was Manchester City, who defeated Arsenal in the final with the score 2: 0. Most of these competitions won Liverpool (10 times).
