In the home victory against FC Everton, Arsenal took the lead in the Premier League title race. Deep into injury time, the game made history with a novelty.

Specifically, it was youngster Max Dowman who increased the lead to 2-0 for the PL leaders in the seventh minute of extra time, scoring his first PL goal and thus entering the league's history books.

At 16 years and 73 days old, he is now the youngest goal scorer in the English top flight ever.  

Earlier in the game, Dowman also played a pivotal role. The lead in the 89th minute was preceded by a cross from the 16-year-old. 

After the game, the youngster received a lot of praise, according to the 'Daily Mail', including from his colleague Viktor Gyokeres: "It's incredible. You can see how he plays. He remains so calm and fearless every time he gets the ball. He also makes the right decision most of the time, and with the goal, he definitely made the right decision. He's a great player, it was a great goal for him and I'm very happy for him."

Today, we can all ask ourselves once again what we were doing at 16 - certainly not scoring our first goal in the supposedly best league in the world.
