West Ham United secured the U18 Premier League South division title with a battling 2-0 victory against Arsenal on Saturday. 

A close-fought contest saw Mason Terry called into action on numerous occasions to deny the Gunners the lead at Rush Green Stadium before substitute Divine Mukasa opened the scoring on 68 minutes, netting his first goal at U18s level with a smart finish. 

Captain Gideon Kodua doubled the lead on 80 minutes after good interplay with Marshall and Patrick Kelly, securing the win over an Arsenal side coached by former Hammers midfielder Jack Wilshere. 

The impressive win, against the same side that the U18s will meet in the FA Youth Cup final in just under two weeks, secured a first youth-team league title since 1999/00.
