FULL TIME: Arsenal 3-1 Chelsea
90+4'
As for Arsenal, they will reflect on a job well done. Arteta entrusted the youngsters and he has been repaid for that. Martinelli, Saka and Smith-Rowe were all very impressive.
90+3'
This has been better from Chelsea in the last 10 minutes or so, but it has been far too late from them. They have been second best and deserve to be losing this derby match.
90+2'
90+1'
PENALTY KICK SAVED! That is surely Chelsea's chance gone! Jorginho's spot kick is saved! It was too tame to beat Leno and the Arsenal goalkeeper makes the stop to surely secure the points!
90'
PENALTY KICK TO CHELSEA! Mari brings down Mount inside the area and that's a spot kick to the Blues!
88'
It should be noted Tierney was yellow carded before the Abraham goal.

Silva... wide! Another chance for the Chelsea centre back to find the back of the net, but Silva this time heads wide after getting on the end a cross into the Arsenal penalty area.
86'
GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL! Arsenal 3 Chelsea 1 (86 mins - Tammy Abraham). Not over yet! Abraham's goal stands after it was initially ruled out for offside! The Chelsea striker converted from close range after a good cross in behind the Arsenal backline by Hudson-Odoi! They couldn't, could they? Surely this is over already?
86'
GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO... NO! Chelsea believe they have given themselves a late lifeline, but the flag is up! Abraham converted from a Hudson-Odoi cross, but will it stand?
85'
Off the bar! The ball spins out to Elneny after a corner kick is partially cleared, but the Egyptian midfielder sees his strike come back off the woodwork! Mendy was beaten all ends up!
84'
Mendy mix up! Almost a huge gaffe from the Chelsea goalkeeper! Mendy played the ball straight to Lacazette, but then makes amends with a diving save to prevent a fourth Arsenal goal!
83'
Arsenal need to start winning games and stopping this alarming slide towards the bottom of the Premier League table. A win over one of their closest rivals today certainly helps in that regard.

80'
Abraham over the bar! That was an opportunity for the Chelsea striker to give his side a late lifeline, but he heads over the target. The cross was just a little high for Abraham to get over!
79'
Havertz is also on for Chelsea. Can the German international make the difference?

This was the third goal!

After today’s game against Chelsea, Arsenal face a trip to the south coast to take on Brighton. Potter’s team play some nice stuff and so they will be a threat to the Gunners on Tuesday evening.
