We go again.

Arsenal started quickly but Leeds were the better side for the last half-hour or so, without looking especially likely to score.

Half-time: Arsenal 0-0 Leeds
45+1'
Across London, Kai Havertz has put Chelsea in front against Southampton.
45'
There'll be one additional minute.
43'
Kolasinac does well to nod down a searching cross and Pepe's poor touch sets Smith Rowe for a shot, which he slices high and wide.
41'
I wonder if Arteta will change things at half-time, or wait until Leeds score - which they might not do. But the away side are looking far more dangerous at the moment.
39'
Again, James breaks at centre-forward and has Rodrigo to his right and Dallas to his left. The ball is the former, but he goes for the latter, and doesn't put enough on it to allow him take it on the burst, instead forcing him wide, and the attack breaks down.

Leeds are threatening here, Harrison picking up possession 40 yards form goal and sliding in behind for Rodrigo. But Leno is wise to the ruse, sliding out to smother.
37'
England Women have shaded Latvia 10-0.
36'
Drameh gets his body in front of Martinelli, moving the ball away from him, catching him with his hand. On the touchline, little Miky is enraged, but it wasn't even a foul.
35'
Drameh brings the corner away and finds James down the left, who sends the ball over to the left, Rodrigo allowing it to pass. Roberts could shoot early, but instead ducks inside White, swiping a shot wide.
34'
Ilian Meslier looks about 12, so it's no surprise he relies on his defenders to clear the ball for him.
34'
Leeds give it away, Phillips dithering and Maitland-Niles charging through him; the ball works its way out to Pepe, who wins a corner.
32'
Smith Rowe drifts right looking for the ball, but Dallas is quickly at him.
32'
This is noice.
31'
I'd forgotten smith Rowe was playing. Arsenal need to get him on the ball.
30'
James is coming into this, turning up at centre-forward to turn and slides towards Dallas, whose hopeful flick towards Rodrigo is easily intercepted.

This time, Holding puts a head on the corner, sending the ball towards James on the edge. But it won't come down for him, so he can only slice a tame shot that Leno saves easily.
28'
Leeds now look the more enterprising side, and James wins a corner off Elneny.

White gets the first touch on the corner but sends the ball on one to Harrison, who leathers a shot towards the near post ... forcing Leno to tip around the post! That's a good save; the resultant corner comes to nowt.
