Arsenal 0-3 Chelsea: How the action unfolded in Beijing

That was impressive from the Premier League champions. This is only their first game of their pre-season tour, but Chelsea have laid down a marker with this result. Arsenal really struggled for a foothold in the game. Wenger will have his concerns after that.

That was Arsenal's best chance of the scond half. The angle was tight, but after a good run into the area from Neslon, Willock could only hit the post with his shot.

This has been an impressive showing from Chelsea. The changes from both teams mean that the flow of this match has been lost over the last 15 minutes or so, but the damage had already been done by that point. The Premier League champions look in great shape.

This is getting a bit silly with the changes now. Nelson and Willock have come on for Arsenal. I think Kante and Michy might have also taken their place on the bench for Chelsea as well.

Baker is dragged to the ground by Kolasinac as Chelsea surged forward on the break, with the referee showing the left back a yellow card for the foul.

That would have been a fantastic goal from Tomori. He surged down the right wing after an excellent pass from Fabregas, but his shot is saved by Ospina and the rebound is mopped up by the Arsenal backline, who have been all over the place today.

Conte has made four changes to his team and Remy, Baker, Tomori and Kenedy are on for the final 20 minutes at the Bird's Nest Stadium. They have a chance to impress.

Borga has made a real impression since coming on for Pedro in the first half. The youngster is keen to show what he can do. Conte has surely noticed his performance. He's given Arsenal trouble.

Not much in the way of goalscoring opportunities since Chelsea's third goal, but the Premier League champions are starting to get a little sloppy. Giroud has made a difference since he came on.

What an exceptional goal! Fabregas' pass from deep found the run of Alonso down the left wing, with the full back cutting inside and playing a pass to the edge of the box. From there, Michy lashed home a finish to give Chelsea a three-goal lead.

The second half is under way! Giroud and Caballero have come on. Chelsea are 2-0 up against Arsenal.

That was an extremely positive 45 minutes from the Premier League champions. They have been the better team and they deserve to be two goals to the good at the half time break. Arsenal need to come up with a game plan for the second half. They've looked lost.

That's the best Arsenal opportunity of the match, with Oxlade-Chamberlain picking out the run of Ramsey in behind the Chelsea defence, but Courtois makes the save from the Welsh midfielder at his near post.

It's a quickfire double for Conte's side! Not for the first time, Arsenal give away possession far to cheaply and Michy sends a wonderful finish past Ospina. Chelsea have been the better team and now they are making their chances count.

The Premier League champions have taken the lead five minutes before the break! Monreal allows Willian to cut inside and take the shot on his right foot and the Brazilian bends the ball inside the far post and in off the woodwork.

Chelsea think they have opened the scoring, taking a quick corner kick, allowing Michy to finish from close range, but the flag is up for offside. Replays show that it was a marginal call. He might well have been in line.

Once again, poor possession play from Arsenal inside their own half results in a chance for Chelsea, but Willian's shot is straight down the throat of Ospina and the Chilean goalkeeper can make the save to keep the scoreline goalless.

There's a break in play at the moment, allowing the players to take some liquid on. It's very humid in Beijing. Energy sapping conditions, so expect to see another one of these breaks in the second half. The players look thankful for it.

Pedro isn't able to continue after that collision with Opsina and on comes Boga in his place.

That's a sore one for Pedro! The Spanish international had eyes only for the ball as he chased a pass over the top, but Ospina came off his line to make an intervention and clattered the Chelsea player in the process. He's receiving treatment, but should be fine.

The pitch at the Bird's Nest Stadium in Beijing certainly isn't the greatest. Keep in mind that a Manchester derby last year was cancelled because of the state of the pitch. It's difficult to string passes together on the surface.

Wenger's men are starting to improve now, pressing Chelsea higher up the pitch. They are beginning to get a foothold in the contest. Much better from the Gunners.

First involvement for Lacazette, but the new Arsenal number nine barges over Luiz and the referee awards Chelsea a freekick. The Frenchman likes to use his physicality.

Maitland-Niles gives the ball away cheaply, allowing Willian to surge towards the Arsenal goal, but the Brazilian puts his low shot across goal and wide of the far post. That was an excellen chance for Chelsea.

Chelsea have made a flying start to this match! They probably have the stronger of the starting lineups on the pitch and Pedro is the one causing most problems in attack. Arsenal look to have slotted into a back three. Moses got in behind as well, but Ospina made the save.

The match is under way in Beijing! It's Arsenal against Chelsea. As pre-season friendlies go, this is pretty much as good as they get.

Chelsea: Courtois; Azpilicueta, David Luiz, Cahill (c); Moses, Kante, Fabregas, Alonso; Willian, Batshuayi, Pedro

Arsenal: Ospina, Maitland-Niles, Mertesacker, Monreal, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Ramsey, Xhaka, Bramall, Ozil, Iwobi, Lacazette

The Premier League champions meet the FA Cup holders at the famous Bird's Nest Stadium in Beijing. Arsenal produced a 2-1 win over Chelsea to deny Antonio Conte's side the double at Wembley in May.

It is the second of three matches between the pair ahead of the Premier League season with the Community Shield match being staged at Wembley on Sunday August 7, a week before the season begins.

Alexandre Lacazette and Mesut Ozil start the match for Arsenal while Michy Batshuayi is handed a start for Conte's side amid reports he could be farmed out on loan. Chelsea have confirmed the signing of striker Alvaro Morata from Real Madrid for around £70m, but he will not join up with his new team-mates until next week.
