End of Match 		1
44' Martin Ødegaard
64' Alexandre Lacazette 		33' Erik Lamela
F-T ARSENAL 2-1 TOTTENHAM.
90+4' Spurs are still pushing for a late equaliser with Lucas making a driving run through the middle to try and create some space for a shot. He's brought down by Xhaka though and they have a free-kick just outside the box.
90+2' Spurs are moving the ball upfield a lot quicker now, but they're passing into the final third is letting them down.
90' Kane hits the post! Despite having a man lying on the turf, Kane drills it across the floor and it strikes the bottom of the post.
88' Mohamed Elneny replaces Alexandre Lacazette.
87' Leno rises highest to punch the corner clear, it is sent back into the box and the German once again comes out to claim.
86' Moura and Kane combine again, with the Brazilian dinking towards the backpost but David Luiz steers behind for a corner.
83' OFFSIDE!
Lucas takes a free-kick for Spurs and he curls it into Kane at the far post. He sends his header back across goal and Leno can't get back quick enough to stop it hitting the back of the net, but Kane set off too early and the flag goes up again
77' Willian replaces Emile Smith Rowe.
76' Second yellow card to Erik Lamela for a bad foul.
74' Arsenal looking for a third now, as Odegaard's corner is headed across goal by Gabriel but Lloris collects.
71' Attempt saved.
Erik Lamela header from the centre of the box is saved in the top centre of the goal.
69' Erik Lamela is shown the yellow card for a bad foul.
64' Penalty Goal by Alexandre Lacazette.
63' Yellow Card to Davinson Sánchez.
57' Gareth Bale is replaced by Moussa Sissoko.
56' Lacazette does well to stay on his feet after pressure from Sanchez, turn and fire a strong effort from outside of the box but Lloris is equal to it and holds onto the ball.
53' Tierney looks to slide in Pepe through the middle, but Sanchez just about intercepts to avert the danger.
51' Bale has occupied a central position from the outset of this half. He picks the ball up and drives down the left before hooking a cross in for Kane, but it's just too strong for the striker and Arsenal clear.
48' Ndombele marauds forwards through a trio of Arsenal bodies, but the Frenchman is unable to make anything of his hard work and Arsenal clear.
46' Second Half begins..
H-T ARSENAL 1-1 TOTTENHAM
45+1' Arsenal are looking for another late goal in this first half, this time with Cedric driving forward down the right. He can't pull away from Reguilon though and his low cross is put out for a corner.
44' Goal Martin Ødegaard.
42' Arsenal win another corner after good work on the left. Smith-Rowe and Tierney have been totally dominant over Bale and Doherty on that side, without the goal to show for it.
40' Yellow Card to Sergio Reguilón.
37' OFF THE POST AGAIN!
Arsenal get down the left through Smith-Rowe, who cuts back for Lacazette who, in a great position, chooses to let the ball run for Cedric. The Portuguese lets rip and his shot rattles Lloris' left post and Spurs survive.
36' Sanchez loses possession and Smith-Rowe seizes on the ball, cutting in on his right foot but his cross is cleared.
33' Goal!
Arsenal 0-1 Tottenham Hotspur.
Erik Lamela left footed shot from the left side of the box.
29' It's sloppy from Cedric as he gifts the ball to Reguilon on the halfway line and he touches it onto Lucas, who has space to run into. It's too slow from Spurs though and he's nudged off it by Partey.
28' Michael Oliver stops play momentarily due to an issue between Xhaka and Lamela, two players with feisty temperaments, it is fair to say. Play continues now.
26' Chance Arsenal!
Again Smith-Rowe head up and spots Lacazette, but the Frenchman gets his strike all wrong and it goes wide of goal.
24' Smith-Rowe's cross from the left hand side is cleared and Arsenal do well to scurry back and contain the Spurs counter.
23' Arsenal shift Spurs from side to side, opening up space down the left where Tierney spots the free Thomas Partey on the edge of the box, but the midfielder cannot direct his shot on target.
19' Erik Lamela replaces Son Heung-Min because of an injury.
16' Big chance Arsenal!
Reguilon is dispossessed on the right. The ball is played centrally towards Emile Smith-Rowe, who cushions a touch in front of him before crashing a strike onto the crossbar.
15' Lloris came out of his box to deal with a long ball over the top but has to clear it on the stretch as he's closed down by Odegaard.
13' Arsenal are keeping the pressure on Spurs here and the visitors can't get out of there own box. It's Saka this time that floats a cross in from the right, but it's over Lacazette's head and straight out of play.
11' Partey tries to slide in Saka but Alderweireld comes across to clear behind for a corner.
7' Foul by Alexandre Lacazette.
Tanguy Ndombele wins a free kick in the defensive half.
6' Arsenal are dominating possession here, with Spurs barely having a touch of the ball in the opening minutes.
5' Lacazette cross from outside the box is blocked into the path of Tierney, who drags a cross-shot wide and out for a throw in.
4' Arsenal have a free kick in Spur's third after Lacazette was felled. Odegaard's cross is cleared by Sanchez as far as David Luiz, but again the Colombian rises highest to clear.
1' First Half begins..
