Arsenal striker Chuba Akpom can’t stop scoring at the moment and it seems he struggles to hide his goalscoring instincts no matter the opposition.

Therefore the young forward was in no mood to take it easy when he turned up in a match full of youngsters, hitting a confident finish you can watch below.

Akpom, who scored a hat-trick on Wednesday against a Singapore XI, was amongst eight Arsenal players to visit an Emirates Football Clinic where the likes of Mesut Ozil, Santi Cazorla and Petr Cech passed on advice to 60 youngsters who hope to be the next generation of Singaporean stars.

After Per Mertesacker, Laurent Koscielny had passed on words of wisdom the youngsters took part in a series of five-a-side games, where Akpom was not willing to go easy. Picking the ball up midway in the pitch he sprinted past his tiny rivals before sending the keeper the wrong way. Opposition player Kieran Gibbs did not look impressed.

After their footballing lesson the youngsters managed to get autographs and selfies with their heroes. Hopefully they weren't too bitter about being outclassed by the young striker.
