Arsenal U21 2-3 Fulham U21 | Kabia & Sagoe Jr Score in PL2 Season Opener | Highlights 15/08/25

Arsenal U21s kicked off their Premier League 2 season with a 3-2 defeat against Fulham at the Mangata Pay UK Stadium. The young Gunners made a lively start, with Ismeal Kabia denied what looked like a strong penalty shout before Fulham struck twice in quick succession through Tom Olyott and Aaron Loupalo-Bi. Louie Copley’s sharp footwork created the opening for Charles Sagoe Jr. to smash home and halve the deficit, and soon after, Kabia showed blistering pace to level the score before half-time after earlier going close. The second half saw both sides battle hard, with Tommy Setford producing key saves to keep Arsenal in the contest. However, Fulham regained their advantage late on when Loupalo-Bi netted his second of the night. Kabia nearly rescued a point with two late chances, but Fulham keeper Alex Borto stood firm to deny him, leaving Arsenal to start the campaign empty-handed despite a spirited performance. 🔔 Subscribe for more Arsenal content!
