Events

Match Events

  • 0' We are underway at Emirates Stadium. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
  • 5' Poland international Jakub Kiwior has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
  • 10' named a 4-3-3 earlier, and opted for a 4-2-3-1 in response. A fascinating tactical duel is developing.
  • 15' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Soungoutou Magassa suffering a number of foals already.
  • 20' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Mikel Arteta will be considering his options from the bench.
  • 25' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
  • 30' It looks like no one’s ball. AS Monaco FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 32' A moment of madness from Martinelli on 32 minutes earns him a card. Arsenal FC will be frustrated.
  • 34' The England Bukayo Saka breaks the deadlock on 34 minutes. 1-0!
  • 39' Myles Lewis-Skelly has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 19 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 44' Both keepers have barely been tested. Arsenal FC and AS Monaco FC are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
  • 46' A tactical swap from AS Monaco FC — Takumi Minamino on, Soungoutou Magassa off on 46 minutes.
  • 51' Lamine Camara has been relatively quiet despite scoring 5 goals in his last 434 appearances.
  • 56' Arsenal FC are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
  • 60' A moment of madness from Mikel Merino on 60 minutes earns him a card. Arsenal FC will be frustrated.
  • 63' The referee shows AS Monaco FC player a card on 63.
  • 64' It is a substitution in Arsenal FC team. Myles Lewis-Skelly is replaced by Jurrien Timber on 64 minute.
  • 69' AS Monaco FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 73' Kai Havertz gets the nod from Arsenal FC. He replaces Gabriel Jesus and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 78' Bukayo Saka has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 78 minutes.
  • 79' Ethan Nwaneri gets the nod from Arsenal FC. He replaces Martin Odegaard and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 81' Another change for AS Monaco FC made on 81 minute. Lamine Camara leaves to be changed by Eliot Matazo.
  • 86' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 86 minutes.
  • 88' What a strike from Kai Havertz! The score is 3-0.
  • Another three points for Arsenal FC.
