Arsenal defeat Everton with Dowman setting Premier League record

Arsenal secured a 2-0 victory over Everton in a tense Premier League match as they push forward in the title race. 16-year-old winger Max Dowman made history as the Premier League’s youngest goalscorer with a stunning stoppage-time goal, dribbling past two Everton players before slotting the ball into an empty net. Dowman, who made his third league appearance, broke the record set by James Vaughan in 2005. Despite still being in school, Dowman has impressed with his skills on the pitch, including becoming the youngest player in Champions League history last year. Arsenal has had to make special arrangements for Dowman to comply with Premier League regulations for players under 18.
