Arsenal defender Rob Holding: I think I did alright...

Rob Holding was delighted with his performance in Arsenal's win over the MLS All-Stars.

It marked a whirlwind few weeks for the 20-year-old but the centre-back was delighted with the experience.

He said: "I was a bit nervous coming into it. I was bound to be, but once I was on the pitch and warming up the jitters go and you are OK then.

"Your stomach settles and you feel good.

"I think I did all right. It would have topped it off had my header gone in from that corner.

"That would have been a bit of a glory moment, but I'll keep working on it and it will come hopefully."
