LIVE COMMENTARY
F-T
Arsenal 2-0 Manchester United
90+3'
Brave goalkeeping from Leno to deny Rashford after a delightful chip into the box from Mata.
90'
Four minutes will be added on.
87'
Corner, Manchester United. Conceded by David Luiz.
86'
Torreira looks to hammer the ball clear, but Guendouzi gets in his way, which leads to a bit of confusion that ends in a Manchester United corner.
🟹 82'
Bukayo Saka is shown the yellow card.
🔄 82'
Matteo Guendouzi replaces Alexandre Lacazette.
🔄 80'
Juan Mata replaces Nemanja Matic.
78'
Attempt missed. Alexandre Lacazette right footed shot from outside the box.
75'
Fred delivers a corner to the far post, but Leno steps off his line and punches it away with a strong fist. United regather possession, but the half-clearance gives the Arsenal defence just enough time to reorganise.
73'
Lindelof chips a pass forward to Martial, whose aerial flick-on falls neatly on the edge of the penalty area for Greenwood. The striker looks up and takes a quick right-footed shot, but Leno gets down to make an easy save.
🔄 69'
Bukayo Saka replaces Sead Kolasinac.
64'
Attempt missed. Marcus Rashford right footed shot from the left side of the box.
🔄 62'
Reiss Nelson replaces Nicolas Pépé.
🔄 58'
Mason Greenwood replaces Daniel James.
🔄 58'
Andreas Pereira replaces Jesse Lingard.
54'
Shaw sets up Fred, who has a go from a long way out. He manages to send the drive on target, but Leno has enough time to take the sting out of the strike before palming it assuredly.
50'
Arsenal are furious about United refusing to put the ball out of play with Pepe on the floor, so Torreira just hauls down Lingard. Surprised not to see a yellow card for that.
48'
Martial has Xhaka and Torreira closing him down - which forces the striker to slip a ball through the defence for Rashford. David Luiz and Sokratis respond well to close the gap, leading to a comfortable interception.
46'
Second Half begins Arsenal 2, Manchester United 0.

Arsenal 2-0 Man Utd | Sokratis Papastathopoulos 43'
40'
Lacazette’s cross from the right manages to trickle across the face of goal for Aubameyang, but his centring pass to Ozil is poked away. Arsenal retain possession, but they’re forced to start with their centre-backs.
36'
Nicolas Pépé wins a free kick in the defensive half.
33'
Torreira spins through the Manchester United defence on the edge of the 18 and has an off-balance strike which goes narrowly wide of the goal!
31'
Lacazette drives into the penalty area following a Pepe pass and turns Maguire, working space in which to shoot. It’s a lovely turn from the striker, but his outside-the-foot shot doesn’t even require a save from De Gea.
29'
Mesut Özil wins a free kick in the defensive half.
25'
Lacazette contorts his body to place a cross from the left at the far post between Maguire and Fred, but Pepe doesn’t make the run as Shaw can watch it out for a goal-kick.
21'
Aubameyang flashes a cross past De Gea’s goal for Pepe at the far post, but Shaw is aware of the winger behind him as he chests it down and puts it out for an Arsenal throw.
20'
Most of Arsenal's attacking threat is coming down the left-hand side because Kolasinac is making some devilish runs down that flank.
16'
Lucas Torreira wins a free kick in the defensive half.
⚜ 8'
Goal!
Arsenal 1-0 Man Utd | Nicolas Pepe 8'
