Arsenal have been handed a huge boost with the presence of Aaron Ramsey making an appearance for the reserves on Tuesday.

The midfielder had not played since suffering a sickening leg injury against Stoke in February and faced a long road to recovery. The teenager's progress has gone pretty much according to plan and after impressing in training, he was given the nod to face Wolves' second string.

The Wales international came through 45 minutes and looked totally at ease, making tackles and dashing runs. He had one shot saved by Aaron McCarey and looked to come through the outing unscathed.

As well as a physical boost, it will have been a huge psychological barrier to overcome and Ramsey will now look to press on with his recovery.

Manuel Almunia was also in action, with the Spain keeper taking his place in goal for the 2-1 win.
