Arsenal Defeats Preston 0-3 to Secure EFL Cup Quarter-Finals

A  dominant Arsenal side, featuring several rotational changes, comfortably defeated Championship team Preston North End 3-0 at Deepdale in the EFL Cup.

Goals from Gabriel Jesus, Ethan Nwaneri, and substitute Kai Havertz secured the Gunners’ quarter-final spot.

Mikel Arteta’s much-changed yet strong lineup controlled possession throughout, taking a 2-0 lead by halftime.

Teenage sensation Ethan Nwaneri impressed with a rifled goal, bolstering his reputation.

Raheem Sterling’s efforts went unrewarded, with a late attempt cleared off the line.

Preston, the last remaining Championship side, struggled to challenge their Premier League opponents despite a packed Deepdale stadium.

The hosts’ rare attempts came late, with Jeppe Okkels testing teenage goalkeeper Tommy Setford in the 78th minute and Emil Riis Jakobsen stabbing wide in the dying moments.
