45' What a chance!
Arsenal have looked dangerous every time they've gone forward tonight.
Smith Rowe dances away from several Chelsea defenders in the box before sending an effort just wide. That would have been a really lovely goal.
43' Saka sends a teasing cross into the area which was begging to be met with a header, but it drifts all the way through and out for a goalkick.

9' Ruben Loftus-Cheek tries a through ball, but Romelu Lukaku is caught offside.
7' SAVE!
Arsenal's first chance comes to centre-back Gabriel. Xhaka chips a delightful pass in behind and the defender's cross-cum-shot has to be parried away by the left leg of Mendy. That was too easy for Arsenal.
7' Foul by Mason Mount.
Mohamed Elneny wins a free kick in the attacking half.
5' OFF THE LINE!
Mount's in-swinging corner almost goes directly in! Gabriel got back onto the goalline and headed the ball away from under his own crossbar. A great bit of defending.
3' Chelsea have dominated possession in the opening minutes. Kante intercepts deep in the Arsenal half and tries to slip in Werner but the visitors defended well.
