  • 5' named a earlier, and opted for a in response. A fascinating tactical duel is developing.
  • 10' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Matteo Guendouzi.
  • 13' Magnificent from Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang! That is 146 goals in 428 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
  • 18' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
  • 23' Shkodran Mustafi is ready to make an impact after coming on for Calum Chambers at the 23 minute mark.
  • 28' It’s high time Arteta made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 30' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Mason Mount.
  • 34' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the Yellow card for Antonio Rudiger.
  • 34' Jorginho is ready to make an impact after coming on for Emerson at the 34 minute mark.
  • 39' Arsenal FC currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
  • 44' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 44 minutes.
  • 47' David Luiz catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Yellow card on 47.
