Events

Match Events

  • 0' In just a few seconds Emirates Stadium will turn into a battlefield for Arsenal FC and Southampton FC.
  • 5' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
  • 10' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Southampton FC that had 348 games and scored 417 goals.
  • 15' It looks surprising Southampton FC does not make any changes. Kai Havertz has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 20' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Southampton FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 23' The referee shows Southampton FC player a card on 23.
  • 27' Southampton FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Cameron Archer is hanging Ross Stewart on the field on 27 minute.
  • 32' Supporters expect more eagerness from Ross Stewart, as he is very good at scoring at Emirates Stadium with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 34' That looks like a foul for a card for Jan Bednarek.
  • 38' Tyler Dibling is having his name booked by the referee on 38.
  • 43' Arsenal FC is showing some good football. However, Arsenal FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 48' Flynn Downes needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
  • 53' 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 Bukayo Saka suffering a number of foals already.
  • 58' Goal! Cameron Archer scores his 29 goal in 355 matches.
  • 61' What a strike from Kai Havertz! The score is 1-1.
  • 61' The supporters are chanting for Martinelli. He replaces Raheem Sterling on 61 minute.
  • 66' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
  • 71' Martinelli puts Arsenal FC on the lead.
  • 74' Another substitution for Southampton FC to replace Ryan Manning by Paul Onuachu on 74 minute.
  • 79' Southampton FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 84' The whistle greets Thomas Partey as he departs to be replaced by Takehiro Tomiyasu.
  • 89' It’s high time Mikel Arteta made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 90' Charlie Taylor has so much to prove this time. He replaces Yukinari Sugawara on 90 minute.
  • Full Time. Arsenal FC beats Southampton FC
