Nigerian
youngsters Alex Iwobi, Chuba Akpom and Kelechi Iheanacho all scored as Arsenal
beat Manchester City 3-2 in a pre-season friendly in Gothenburg, Sweden on
Sunday.
With both
teams naming strong starting line-ups, it was City who took the lead after half
an hour when Sergio Aguero turned in Raheem Sterling's cross.
Alex Iwobi
levelled early in the second half before Theo Walcott and Akpom put the Gunners
3-1 ahead.
Iwobi has
now scored three goals in pre-season while Akpom scored for the fourth game in
a row.
Kelechi
Iheanacho pulled a goal back for City and there was then a lengthy stoppage
after an injury to Gabriel, who had to be stretchered off after a clash with
Sterling.
Arsenal will
open their English Premier League campaign next Saturday against Liverpool,
while City will do battle against Sunderland.
