Goaaaaal from a penalty!
en el 33' (West Ham)
  • 33 '
    GOOOALL!! Benrahma makes no mistake from the spot, sending Ramsdale the wrong way. Professional job from the spot-kick. Stupid from Gabriel to go in like he did for the foul, but it was a soft penalty.
  • 32 '
    PENALTY TO WEST HAM!!!! Gabriel does come flying in on Paqueta, but the West Ham man goes down way too easily. Ref blew straight away but we'll see what the VAR says.
  • 30'
    Free-kick quite a qay out for the Gunners here.
  • 27'
    West Ham have found a way of balancing the play here. Bit a mix of them tightening up at the back and Arsenal feeling comfortable being two up.
  • 22'
    Some neat Arsenal-style footwork there in the box, but just too many Hammers bodies to make it work.
  • 19'
    Holding adjudged to have been too physical on Antonio there and it's a free kick for the hosts right on the by-line.
  • 16'
    Things have taken a bit of a step back from the frantic first ten minutes here, but Arsenal still very much dominating.
  • 12'
    Moyes complaining on the touchline here, but no amount of shouting will change the first ten minutes here. Worst possible start for the Hammers, mountain to climb.
  • 10 '
    GOOOOOOAALLLLLLL!!! IT'S ANOTHER FOR ARSENAL!!! This time it's Odegaard who adds his name to the score-board, volleying straight in from a pin-point Martinelli cross. Bit of a more impressive finish than Jesus'...
  • 7 '
    GOOOOOOAAAAAALLLL FOR ARSENAL!!!! And the Gunners have the lead!! It's Gabriel Jesus who manages to poke it home after Ben White who was excellently fed through on the right, before he simply crossed it across the face of goal, where the Brazilian was lying in wait for the easiest finish he'll have in a while.
  • 3'
    Early foul for Arsenal after Paqueta tears White down.
  • 1'
    Aaaaaand Arsenal have got us underway here in east London.
