Match Events
- 0' It’s Showtime! The match between Girona FC and Arsenal FC is underway.
- 5' Myles Lewis-Skelly has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 57 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 10' It’s high time Mikel Arteta made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 15' 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.
- 20' 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 Kai Havertz suffering a number of foals already.
- 25' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Gabriel Magalhaes made 466 appearances and scored 28 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 28' What a strike from Arnaut Danjuma! The score is 1-0.
- 33' It looks surprising Girona FC does not make any changes. Leandro Trossard has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 38' What an equalizer from Jorginho!
- 42' Arsenal FC is taking the lead after the goal scored by Ethan Nwaneri on 42.
- 46' Another change for Arsenal FC made on 46 minute. Thomas Partey leaves to be changed by Jurrien Timber.
- 51' It’s a booking for Girona FC player. Antal Yaakobishvili gets a card.
- 56' 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.
- 57' It is a substitution in Girona FC team. Abel Ruiz is replaced by Cristhian Stuani on 57 minute.
- 62' Girona FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 67' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 68' The Girona FC manager makes a substitution. Ivan Martin departs to be replaced by Donny van de Beek.
- 70' It is a substitution in Arsenal FC team. Leandro Trossard is replaced by Kai Havertz on 70 minute.
- 71' Raheem Sterling was booked on 71.
- 76' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 79' That looks like a foul for a card for Portu.
- 81' Another substitution for Arsenal FC to replace Jorginho by Declan Rice on 81 minute.
- 85' A meaty challenge results in booking for Arnau Martinez on 85.
- 87' Martinelli has so much to prove this time. He replaces Ethan Nwaneri on 87 minute.
