31'
Lokonga finds Tierney down the left and his cross is a decent one, but it picks out Mee and he heads away.

Arsenal counter and Saka, who's been quiet feeds infield for Smith Rowe. He accelerates away, for the 0.309s it takes for Brownhill to clatter him. This time, he is booked.

Burnley's set-pieces are causing Arsenal all manner of trouble, and they try the corner routine again, Tarkowski taking the ball down well before Vydra's shot is blocked.
28'

Odegaard shoots, curling a tame effort past the wall, for Pope to field easily at the near post.
27'
A poor touch from White incites Brownhill to tread on his metatarsus as punishment. He's not booked, no idea why, and arsenal have a free-kick 25 or yards out.

Tierney tries to swing a ball square while on the ground, and Westwood, already committed to the challenge, treads hard on his leg. He does well to avoid a red there, but escapes because he might've been trying to get out of the road, aware that he'd overcommitted. It's a stretch, for mine.
25'
Arsenal are moving the ball with decent pace and conviction, but when Martinelli slides outside him for Tierney, he stands up a cross for no one and Mee heads clear.
24'

Pieters sends a long, searching ball out to Lennon down the right. He slips square for Vydra, whose shot is blocked, but he went early and was offside.
21'
That was a good save, but Odegaard should've scored. That said, I'm not sure the goal would've stood.

Arsenal move it nicely through midfield and Odegaard sets Smith Rowe away at inside-right. I think he might be offside, but he cuts a clever pass back for Odegaard to drive low and hard ... but Pope makes a sprawling save. Lacazette then collects the rebound and his shot is blocked by Tarkowski!

Goodness me, Ramsdale stops talking for a minute to come for the corner, punching - well, trying to, except the ball skids off his knuckles, hits someone, and goes behind for a goalkick. That is quite a stroke of luck.
18'
Burnley are looking some sort of threat and win a corner down the right...

Excellent from Arsenal, touching off, back to goal, turning and taking a return pass from Lokonga, slipped in front of him. He dashes - well, sort of - towards goal, sways outside Mee and does him for pace - the humiliation! - then slices a lash that flies wide of the near post.
15'
We've not seen much from Arsenal so far, but here's Martinelli wandering inside, and when he takes a pass off Odegaard, he wallops a curler into Tarkowski. Arsenal are turning it up.
12'
Burnley have started pretty well here, but they've played alright in a fair few games this season, for no reward.
11'
Virgil van Dijk has put Liverpool ahead at Palace. You can follow along with that game here:

McNeil and Mee attempt the Anderton/Sheringham corner, the former clipping towards the near post and the latter peeling away, drilling just wide. That was a decent effort but also a decent chance.
8'

Rodriguez pulls left and White goes with him, so he feeds down the line for McNeil, who attempts what looks like a cross, but which forces Ramsdale to tip over the bar!
6'
Westwood humps forward, seeking Rodriguez, but Gabriel heads clear.
5'
I feel like I'm watching in 2011, but I can see enough to see that the corner comes to nowt.
