Arsenal star Myles Lewis-Skelly announced himself on the big stage once again after an impressive performance against Manchester City.
The youngster was given the nod at left-back after his sending-off was overturned by an independent commission – making him available once again.
Lewis-Skelly was tasked with dealing with some of Man City’s big threats, with Omar Marmoush, Phil Foden and Erling Haaland all looking to cause him and Arsenal problems.
The Hale End academy graduate dealt with the defensive threats well, while it was his attacking moments that may be remembered best.

They did fire back quickly though as Thomas Partey struck just moments later, with Lewis-Skelly then curling an effort to double the lead.
It was a huge moment for the youngster as his side took control of the tie, one that he will remember for years to come.
