Zinchenko spotted as Arsenal storm back to defeat Orlando City

Arsenal secured a preseason friendly win at Orlando City courtesy of two late goals.

Gabriel Martinelli's opener had been cancelled out by Facundo Torres for the hosts.

But by the end, though, Mikel Arteta's side had run out 3-1 winners, thanks to goals from academy graduates Eddie Nketiah and Reiss Nelson – the latter assisted by fellow Hale End graduate, Bukayo Saka.

Due to a ferocious thunderstorm pre-match, the kick-off was delayed by an hour at Orlando City's Exploria Stadium.

Watching on from the stands in Orlando was Oleksandr Zinchenko. His £32million arrival from Manchester City should be confirmed in the coming days ahead of Saturday's final tour game against Chelsea.
