Chuba Akpom Features As Arsenal Win Emirates Cup

England youth international Chuba Akpom was a second - half substitute for Arsenal as they won the Emirates Cup for the first time in 2010 following their 1 - 0 win over Wolfsburg at N7 7AJ.<br /><br />With manager Arsene Wenger dropping all the players except Ozil that started against Lyon, Alex Iwobi, who earned reviews for his outstanding performance against the Ligue 1 team, found himself on the bench.<br /><br />After a goalless first half, Three Lions star Theo Walcott decided the outcome of the game with a goal five minutes after the restart. <br /><br />On 72 minutes, Akpom would have added more gloss to the scoreline but goalkeeper Benaglio held onto his half-volley.<br /><br />Next for Arsenal is the Community Shield tie against EPL champions Chelsea at Wembley next Sunday.<br /><br />Photo Credit : arsenal.com<br />
