West Ham United midfielder Reece Oxford has described his appearance in his side's 2-0 win at Arsenal in the Premier League as "a dream debut".

The 16-year-old was solid as the Hammers shocked the Emirates by scoring two unanswered goals through Cheikhou Kouyate and Mauro Zarate.

Oxford told BBC Sport after the game: "It was a dream debut. I had Winston Reid and Angelo Ogbonna behind me encouraging me.

"It is an honour to be the youngest ever West Ham player. I found out last night I was playing, I was obviously happy."

West Ham climb to third in the Premier League table after their first game.
