Folarin Balogun scored an amazing goal for the Arsenal Under-23 side on Sunday to rescue a point away against Everton Under-23.
The home side had taken the lead just before the break, and may well have believed they were closing in on all three points, but it wasn’t to be.
Balogun picked up the loose ball just after the half-way line and saw the Everton defenders on the retreat, he moves up the field into space before taking on the long-range shot which is placed neatly out of touch of the goalkeeper.

Could we still persuade Balogun to stay beyond the summer?
Patrick
Would love him to be promoted to the 1st team with a new contract, Eddie could be loaned for a season as he is not ready, got a few chances and didnt show much.
Laca will be sold this summer even though hes playing well this season as he is 30 and we need to get some cash for him. Seems when we hand big contracts to aging stars they go completely off the boil in the likes of Auba & Ozil, just 2 examples of recent memory.
Go with youth and have a go as they have injected a new energy to this team who have been absolutely let down by the so called big guns.
Leage Table doesnt lie.
