Arsenal's central player, Bukayo Shaka, has been unfortunate to suffer a serious injury, and his absence has left the right side of the pitch in dire straits. However, in an away game on Thursday, coach Ford boldly introduced 17-year-old starlet Nirvana Nyali, who stunned on his debut in the Premier League and is expected to be the perfect successor to Shaka with his outstanding performance.

In the absence of Shaka, Arsenal urgently adjusted their tactics by moving Gabriele Martinelli from the left to the right. However, Martinelli's right foot was not working well, so the coach decided to use Nivanelli, whose "inside-out" style was the same as Shaka's. The second half saw a series of goals for Arsenal, with Nivanelli's skillful passes leading to the first goal. In the second half, Nivanilli's clever passes led to Arsenal scoring two goals in a row.

At the age of 17 years and 286 days, Nivanilli became the third youngest Premier League player in Arsenal's history, behind Fabigas (17 years and 103 days) in the same year. He even holds the record for the youngest player in Premier League history (15 years and 181 days) and made his Premier League debut in September 2022 against none other than Binford.

Arsenal manager Adi Da praised Nivanelli's young side after the game, "Their story is a legend. We have invested in them and have been impressed by their determination and risk-taking and their willingness to build a great future together."
