Chuba Akpom hits hat-trick in Arsenal U21 win

Arsenal striker Chuba Akpom netted a hat-trick in their 4-0 U21 win over Barnsley.

The 19-year-old hot-shot has made just one first-team appearance so far this season, but gave boss Arsene Wenger food for thought with a well-taken treble at the Amex.

Glen Kamara had already put the young Gunners ahead when Akpom fired home his treble.

The Arsenal academy graduate spent time on loan at Brentford and Coventry last season.
