March 2026

Max Dowman became the youngest goalscorer in Premier League history after sealing Arsenal’s victory over Everton, with Viktor Gyokeres quick to praise the teenager’s maturity and quality. The late goal capped another important result for Arsenal at the top of the table. Arsenal had been pushed deep into the game by a disciplined Everton side before Gyokeres struck late to shift the mood at the Emirates. Dowman then finished the job in stoppage time, with Gyokeres saying the 16-year-old makes smart decisions and does not play like someone his age.
