Two precocious Nigerian starlets, Miguel Azeez and Nathan-Butler Oyedeji combined to devastating effect for Arsenal U-18s in their 2-2 draw with Tottenham in their league meeting at the Shenley Training Centre on Saturday afternoon.
Not once but twice did playmaker Azeez set up his compatriot Oyedeji who grabbed his first ever goals for Arsenal U18s, though they were denied all three points at the death by another Nigerian starlet Kion Etete.
The pick of Oyedeji's goals was his first just before the break when he cut inside and curled a worldie past Spurs goalkeeper Thimotee Lo-Tutala.
And in the 68th minute, the striker was on hand yet to head in for his brace following a decent cross from Azeez.
Bennett and Etete orchestrated the comeback for the visitors to ensure points were shared in Hertfordshire.
Up next, Arsenal host Blackburn Rovers next Saturday and Spurs face Stoke City at home.
