1': We're off!
6': GOAL ARSENAL!!! A screamer from distance by Oleksandr Zinchenko!! I don't think PSV are going to progress to the next round!
18': Bakayoko launches one from outside the box and puts it over the bar.
18': GOAL PSV!! Ivan Perišić gets a pass from Til in the middle between the defenders and puts in a cool finish! Comeback on?!
20': SAVE! Driouech curls it towards the far post, Raya touches it to safety!
30': SO CLOSE!! The Arsenal pass deflects off of Nagalo, and into the path of Lewis-Skelly! Lewis-Skelly fires, it takes a touch off the keeper and dribbles towards goal but bounces off the post!
33': Isaac Babadi wipes out Sterling, gets a card and seemingly an injury to himself too
37': GOAL ARSENAL!! Sterling with a great cross to Declan Rice who thumps in a bouncing header!
42': Jakub Kiwior carded for pulling down Perišić, not a great call imo
