Arsenal starlet Maitland-Niles subbed at half-time for Ipswich on 18th birthday

Arsenal youngster Ainsley Maitland-Niles celebrated his 18th birthday, but didn't have the best of luck as loan side Ipswich Town lost 3-2 to Brighton & Hove Albion in the Championship on Saturday.


The youngster was yellow carded early in the clash at Portman Road, and was substituted at half-time by Ipswich Mick McCarthy to avoid a second yellow.

The loss was the Tractor Boys' first of the season, leaving them in third position on the table.
