Behind The Scenes | U18s win 2022/23 FA Youth Cup

West Ham United U18s came from behind to secure an impressive 5-1 win away to Arsenal to win the 2022/23 FA Youth Cup! 

Kevin Keen's young Hammers fought back after Arsenal took the lead on seven minutes through Omari Benjamin's curling effort, with George Earthy and Callum Marshall striking before Gideon Kodua's incredible lob from almost 40 yards. 

With a 3-1 lead at half-time, the Irons continued to battle in the second and score again through Kaelan Casey's headed effort, before Josh Briggs' volleyed in with his first touch after coming on as a substitute. 

Jubilation spread through the Hammers at the full-time whistle, with the celebrations continuing through the trophy and medal presentation and into the dressing room long after the game.
