Despite a late surge, which saw us net twice inside injury-time, it was the Gunners who fell the right side of a 4-3 scoreline, taking the points in U18 Premier League South at the weekend.

William Daniels scored twice for the Foxes, while Lorenz Hucthinson also got himself on the scoresheet as we sit ninth in the standings with 22 points collected from 19 games.

Looking to carry on from our 4-3 victory over Norwich City last time out, it was instead the hosts who took the lead in Hertfordshire through Ceadach O'Neill.

Hutchinson netted his 10th goal of the season.

In the second half, Daniel Oyetunde increased Arsenal's lead before Brando Bailey-Joseph scored a brace, either side of Daniels' first goal, making the score 4-1 at the 80-minute mark.

The young Foxes did extremely well to put pressure on the London outfit, with two late goals from Hutchinson and Daniels, but it wasn't enough to rescue a point and avoid defeat.

The impressive scoring form does continue, and now extends to 19 goals in the last five outings. Up next is another away trip to the capital, this time against Fulham on Saturday 29 March - a 12pm GMT kick-off at Motspur Park.

The details

City: Donohue, Toko (Sutherington 69'), Diallo (Khela 60'), Gray, Adedeji; Owusu (Anugo 69'), Akolbire, Dyke, Daniels; Aideed (Motsi 69'), Hutchinson.

Unused subs: McNab.

Goals: Daniels 72', 90+5', Hutchinson 90+3'.
