31'
VAR had a quick check at whether Mane was fouled by Bellerin in the box and rules no foul.
29'
Slicker passing from the Reds but Arsenal have everyone behind the ball and are holding firm. Robertson fires in a cross which Martinez does well to palm away.
27'
CHANCE! Saka finds Nketiah who leans back and his shot from around 20 yards goes well over the bar.

24'
Liverpool have been a bit uncharacteristically sloppy with their passing in their own half.
22'
Good defending from the Gunners. Elneny blocked Milner's shot then Salah found the veteran with a clever pass in the box and his cross was cleared.
21'
This has been an impressive start from Arsenal's attacking players on the counter attack, particular Aubameyang and Saka.

18'
GOOD SAVE! Gomez makes a mistake, Xhaka finds Saka who cuts it back to Nketiah whose tame shot from close range is palmed away by Alisson for a corner. Saka's corner is gathered by the Brazil keeper.

Williams did not get close enough to the Gabon striker, after he ran onto Saka's crossfield ball, and he punished Liverpool.
12'
GOAL FOR ARSENAL! Aubameyang cuts inside and curls a brilliant shot from the edge of the box into the corner. Quality finish.

CLOSE! Inviting cross from Williams and an unmarked Milner heads over from close range. He should have found the target, he appeared to mistime his jump.

8''
Van DIjk still has a plaster over his cut eye which he sustained in the 2-2 draw with Salzburg.
7'
DISALLOWED GOAL! Luiz fouls Wijnaldum in the Arsenal half. Robertson with a brilliant ball in and van Dijk pokes it in but is flagged off-side.

Excluding Manchester City last year, the winners of the FA Cup have beaten the league champions in four of the last five Community Shield matches with Arsenal winning three of those (2014, 2015 and 2017).
4'
It has been a fairly cagey start. Robertson's curling cross towards Salah is clumsily cut out by Tierney and Martinez has to make a save.
2'
Interesting call from Arteta to stick with Martinez, who had a good end to the season, with Leno fit again.
1'
Wembley have not covered the seats with any banners behind the goal posts, looks strange seeing all of the empty red seats.
