"Three quick goals helped Bolton cruise past Manchester City's under-21 side as Arsenal picked up a rare Premier League win in the Vertu Trophy. The top-flight clubs taking part in this season's competition had only won two games between them before Tuesday. Chelsea and Tottenham were well beaten by Northampton Town and Plymouth Argyle respectively. But a late goal from Charles Sagoe Junior helped Arsenal's youngsters come from behind to triumph at League Two strugglers Newport County."
"Kamarai Swyer's first goal for Northampton set them on their way to a 3-0 win over Chelsea. Swyer finished after good play by Michael Jacobs, making his second debut for his hometown club. Jacobs then curled in a beauty before Elliot List was tripped and took the resulting penalty for his first goal for the Cobblers. Plymouth - relegated from the Championship last season - handed the biggest defeat of the night to Tottenham Under-21s."
Bolton raced into an early lead with three goals from Sam Dalby, John McAtee and Aaron Morley to defeat Manchester City's under-21 side 3-0. Arsenal U21 recovered from an early Ben Lloyd strike to win 2-1 at Newport County after Andre Harriman-Annous converted a penalty and Charles Sagoe Junior scored a late winner. Northampton Town secured a 3-0 victory over Chelsea U21, featuring Kamarai Swyer, Michael Jacobs and Elliot List. Plymouth Argyle delivered a 6-2 win over Tottenham U21, highlighted by Mathias Ross Jensen, a Tegan Finn double and goals from Aribim Pepple, Owen Oseni and Seb Campbell.
