Full-time: Arsenal 2-0 Leeds
90+4'
Gelhardt finds room for a shot, slicing wide.
90+3'
Lee Hendrie gives Nketiah man of the match, which is fair enough - no one's been great, so he's as good a choice as any.
90+2
Summerville hacks down Nketiah.
90'
There'll be four added minutes.
89
Lacazette mugs Phillips, nips by Cooper and through Dallas, then lamps over the top from the edge.
87'
Those goals absolutely knocked the granny out of Leeds. At no point has any player suggested he thinks this is anything other than over.
85'
Nowt going on here, so let's enjoy this lovely little anecdote about Walter Smith, who died today.
83'
It's a while since I've seen a game with two such bizarre goals. I enjoyed both.
80'
Leeds have done almost nothing this half. Bielsa tried to give them impetus off the bench, but it's just not going for them at the moment.
78'
Time elapses.

Holding can't carry on, so Arteta sends on Tavares.
74'
Holding is down with cramp. The game shouldn't stop for that, get fitter.

Now Arsenal make a double change, Lokonga and Lacazette replacing Smith Rowe and Elneny.

GOAL! Arsenal 2-0 Leeds (Nketiah) Arsenal are going into the last eight! This is a hilarious effort! A long kick from Leno is headed on by Pepe, then Drameh heads back to Cooper, who tries to head back to Meslier. But Nketiah, who learnt that valuable lesson just a few minutes ago, is chasing in case, and takes a glorious touch to lift th eball over the keeper and collects it around the other side, then with the whole goal at which to aim and just three yards out, he kind of slips, clips the ball with his shin pad, and sees it dribble across the face of goal ... and in!
68'
Just outside the box, Klich lifts a ball over the Harrison, on the right of it, and his curler drifts wide.
66'
Arsenal are much the better team now, and Nketah sends Pepe away down the right. He's got Smith Rowe screeching through the middle too, but mishits the pass just as you expected him to
65'
Pepe keeps the width and slides down the line to Cedric, whose cross is a decent one, but Nketiah doesn't gamble, caught on his heels as the ball fizzes across the face.
