Max Dowman sees red: Arsenal teenager, 16, is sent off for England Under-19s in behind-closed-doors game against the USA

Arsenal teenager Max Dowman was sent off while playing for England's Under-19s on Friday in a behind-closed-doors game. 

Dowman, 16, is already a regular in Arsenal's first team and has a Premier League winners' medal following the Gunners' success last season.

Despite only doing his GCSEs in the summer, the teenager has been living it large, making two appearances for Arsenal this season, scoring twice, while he has been on the bench a number of other times.

He was brought back down to earth on Friday, though, when he was shown a straight red card in the second half of England's 2-1 win over the USA.    

Dowman was sent off in the 74th minute. The reason why is unconfirmed, though sources say it was for 'a little kick out when a player went past him' and was on the harsh side. 

He set up former Manchester City forward Reigan Heskey to open the scoring in the first minute.
