Events
Match Events
- 0' Both captains have shaken hands and the referee is ready. We are underway at King Power Stadium!
- 5' Assisted by Bukayo Saka with the perfectly-timed delivery and Gabriel makes no mistake. 0-1!
- 10' It looks like no one’s ball. Arsenal FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 15' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 15 minutes.
- 18' Magnificent from Emile Smith Rowe! That is 30 goals in 416 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
- 23' 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 Youri Tielemans suffering a number of foals already.
- 28' Kelechi Iheanacho has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 6 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 33' With 0 assists to his name this season, Daniel Amartey is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Leicester City FC.
- 38' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 43' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
- 46' Ademola Lookman gets the nod from Leicester City FC. He replaces Kelechi Iheanacho and will look to change the dynamic.
- 51' Arsenal FC have won 729 goals from 416 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
- 56' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Arsenal FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 58' The whistle greets Alexandre Lacazette as he departs to be replaced by Martin Odegaard.
- 63' Arsenal FC fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
- 68' The referee shows Leicester City FC player a Yellow card on 68.
- 71' The Leicester City FC manager makes a substitution. James Maddison departs to be replaced by Patson Daka.
- 75' Jamie Vardy picks up a Yellow card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
- 80' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
- 85' The supporters are chanting for Nicolas Pepe. He replaces Bukayo Saka on 85 minute.
- 90' Emile Smith Rowe makes way for Sead Kolasinac at the 90 minute mark. A tactical switch from Arsenal FC.
- Both sets of fans can go home satisfied — a 0-2 draw is a fair result on the day.
