The 16-year-old Dowman produced another impressive display as Arsenal maintained their perfect start to the season.

Dowman opened the scoring in the seventh minute with a fine piece of footwork. He then added his second goal shortly after half-time with another composed finish.

His brace made him only the second 16-year-old to score twice in the same match for a Premier League club.

Dowman Matches Rooney Record

Dowman’s achievement matched a record set by Wayne Rooney.

Rooney scored twice for Everton in a League Cup tie against Wrexham in 2002.

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta praised Dowman’s ability but urged patience with the young forward.

Arteta said the teenager has the ability to create decisive moments. He also stressed the importance of developing him gradually.

“Everything is possible” for Dowman, Arteta said.

Noni Madueke also scored for Arsenal, while Mikel Merino added another goal before Ipswich responded.
