Pre-Season Kicks Off! Arsenal U21 1-1 Boreham Wood | Bowen Phillips Late Equaliser Secures Draw

Arsenal's U21s kicked off pre-season with a hard-fought 1-1 draw away at Boreham Wood on Friday night. The first half stayed goalless despite Evan Mooney causing problems down the right all evening, a Demiane Agustien free-kick flashing wide, and a Mooney cross cannoning off the bar right before the break. Boreham Wood's best chance saw Matt Rush drag an effort just off target after being played through. Both sides made wholesale changes at the break, and the hosts started the second half the stronger side, hitting the woodwork through Abdul Abdulmalik and forcing a fine save from substitute keeper Porter. After Arsenal brought on their entire bench on the hour mark, Boreham Wood broke through when Norris teed up Marley Marshall-Miranda for a deflected finish. But the Young Gunners hit back with five minutes left as a high press won the ball back, Marley Frohock cut it across, and Bowen Phillips buried it into the top corner to seal a 1-1 draw. 🔔 Subscribe for more Arsenal content!
