Arsenal hammered Standard Liege at home in a Europa League win in which their young players and summer signings shone.

It took 18-year-old Brazilian striker Gabriel Martinelli just thirteen minutes to open the scoring with a header, and three minutes later he grabbed his second.

20-year-old English prospect Joe Willock then got in on the act, adding the third inside the opening half-hour.

Arsenal dominated the rest of the match and scored their fourth midway through the second-half, with Dani Ceballos firing home.
