LIVE COMMENTARY
FT Watford 2-2 Arsenal
90+1' Capoue goes into the book late on for a late challenge.
87' Janmaat shoots well wide from the edge of the area.
81' GOAL! IT'S ALL SQUARE AT 2-2!
71' Arsenal’s final change: Reiss Nelson replaces Mesut Ozil.
67' Guendouzi goes off for Arsenal, with Lucas Torreira replacing him.
62' Aubameyang has a crack from range, but he doesn't make a good connection with his right foot and it slithers harmlessly wide to the left of goal.
58' The Spaniard is certainly looking to impress today as he takes the ball inside and fires a low effort from 20 yards which whistles past the post.
53' Goal Tom Cleverley
50' Xhaka gets the ball a very long way from goal, is urged to shoot, and does so. He catches it reasonably well, but it flies high and wide. Emery presumably just lets him have one of those in every game.
46' Femenia instantly flies forward down the right flank and puts in what initially looks like a good low cross to the edge of the six-yard box. There's nobody attacking it, though, and Leno gathers easily.
HT Half-time: Watford 0-2 Arsenal
43' Kolasinac is booked for a fairly needless sliding tackle on Hughes.
37' Aubameyang's second today was a vintage Arsenal goal. There were 20 passes in the build-up - the longest passing sequence leading to a goal in the 2019-20 Premier League season so far.
32' GOAL! Aubameyang again, it's 2-0!
27' Xhaka gets a good foot in as Watford look to build an attack.
21' GOAL! 1-0 ARSENAL! One chance is all Aubameyang needs! Aubameyang controls brilliantly, spins and pokes it into the bottom-left corner with his right foot.
Great goal.
21' Goal Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang
12' The corner is cleared but it drops to Deulofeu over on the left flank. He plays the ball inside for Cleverley to shoot again, but his curling effort towards the bottom-right corner is easily saved this time.
3' Pepe and Aubameyang look to combine for the first time, the former playing a disguised pass in behind, but it's overhit and Foster can watch it out for a goal-kick.
1' We're off! Aubameyang gets the ball rolling, as Flores accepts a warm reception from the home fans.
