[Video] Arsenal U23’s 2-0 Tottenham U23’s: Sanogo scores on return

By on March 3, 2017

Yaya Sanogo scored on his return to help Arsenal’s under-23 side beat north London rivals Tottenham 2-0 at London Colney this afternoon.

Sanogo was surprisingly named in the starting eleven to face Spurs today with the 24-year-old making his first start of the season following a hugely frustrating campaign.

The 24-year-old has barely been seen in an Arsenal shirt for two years as after enduring disappointing loan spells at Ajax and Charlton last season, he’s been plagued by injury this year.

However, Sanogo was back in the famous Red & White today and opened the scoring against Tottenham shortly before half time with an error from their keeper helping his low shot find the back of the net.

It was Yaya’s first goal for the club since November 2014 and we wrapped up a 2-0 win late on when Malen fed Reiss Nelson who slammed home with just three minutes to go.

I can only find the Sanogo goal, so check it out here:
