"Max Dowman, what a player by the way, 16 years of age, absolutely incredible. I watched him play against Chelsea about a year ago and I've not seen anyone glide past people like this man does, other than Messi. That's a big, big comparison but this man is a proper talent and will play a big part in Arsenal's future and also England as well."
"Introduced with just 16 minutes remaining, Dowman immediately energised Arsenal's attack. His dangerous cross sparked Viktor Gyokeres' opening goal in the 89th minute before the midfielder became the Premier League's youngest-ever goalscorer with a brilliant solo strike in injury time."
"Countering from an Everton corner, the youngster nodded the ball past Vitalii Mykolenko before leaving Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall sprawling on the turf with a devastating change of direction. The strike made Dowman, at 16 years and 72 days, the youngest player ever to score."
