‘Plays like Kaka’ – Watch Arsenal star Max Dowman, 15, score wondergoal for England in record-breaking appearance

ARSENAL wonderkid Max Dowman has earned more rave reviews after a record-breaking performance.

Dowman, 15, starred for England in a 4-2 win over the Czech Republic in the Under-17s Euros last night.

The attacking midfielder put in a man of the match display but it was not enough to stop the Three Lions crashing out in the group stages.

Dowman was the star of the show, scoring a sublime solo opener.

He received the ball out wide and then turned the full-back inside out with a quick piece of skill on the byline.

After getting past him most expected a cut back – but the teenage sensation fooled everyone including the Czech keeper by whipping the ball into the back of the net.

Aged 15 years, four months and 26 days – Dowman is now the youngest ever scorer in Under-17s Euros history.

And his rampant first-half performance got even better as he produced a stunning assist for England‘s second goal.

The young Gunner dictated the play deep in midfield, letting a pass roll across a Czech player and his body to create himself a yard of space.

Dowman then fired an inch perfect through ball into the path of striker Alejandro Gomes Rodríguez, who calmly converted.

Aside from the goals, the youngster was a constant threat as he glided his way through the Czech defence several times.

A compilation of his performance has gone viral online, with fans saying: “Generational talent.”

Another added: “Plays like Kaka used to. I just see a young Kaka, body type and running style. Could be a very special player.”

A third said: “Max will be the best academy graduate the Arsenal‘s ever produced. Special talent.”

Dowman has already trained with the Gunners first-team and he is set to be involved in pre-season this summer.

England legend John Terry is one of the many to have sung his praises after watching him dominate Chelsea‘s youth team, saying: “He is a top, top player.

“He was taking the ball on the half turn, drifting away from players, looking back and a couple of our boys went and put it on him a little bit. It was good to see. But Dowman is a very, very good player.”

Declan Rice has said: “At 15, there is such a long way to go. You can be the best 15-year-old in the country, but it doesn’t necessarily mean you are going to be at 18.

“So, you need to be hungry, keep working and keep pushing.

“I speak to Max a lot and he has got such a good family around him. He is unreal.”
