Arsenal U18s player ratings vs Man City: Myles Lewis-Skelly sends Gunners to FA Youth Cup final after another superb showing

Myles Lewis-Skelly scored a dramatic winner in the final seconds of extra-time to book Arsenal a spot in the FA Youth Cup final following a 2-1 win over Manchester City at the Emirates Stadium.

It was an incredible end to an absorbing clash in north London, one that seemed certain to be heading to penalties until Lewis-Skelly bravely got his head to Bradley Ibrahim's excellent pass to break City hearts.

For City, who had played with 10 men for almost the entirety of the contest, it was tough to take. But for Arsenal it was yet another dramatic ending in a cup run that has been littered with them this season.

Things couldn't have started any better for the home side, with City being reduced to 10 men inside eight minutes when Lakyle Samuel saw red for bringing down Omari Benjamin. Michal Rosiak then bent the resulting free-kick wonderfully into the top corner to put Jack Wilshere's side firmly in command.

City coped well for the remainder of the first half, despite being a man down, but Arsenal started to dominate after the interval and should have put the tie to bed. They wasted a number of opportunities, however, with Benjamin missing one glorious chance after being played through by Amario Cozier-Dubbery.

That proved to be a costly miss as, just a couple of minutes later, Justin Oboavwodou finished off an excellent City move to level things up and seemingly take the game to penalties.

But then, just as spot kicks seemed inevitable, Lewis-Skelly stepped up to send Arsenal through to the final where they will meet either West Ham or Southampton
