ARSENAL ARE A GOOD SIDE NOW
United are on the way to becoming a good side. That, for now, is the difference. Arsenal have a serious chance of winning a first league title since 2003-04!

GOAL! Arsenal 3-2 Man United (Nketiah) They've kept banging at the door and has Eddie Nketiah blown it down?! They've a spare man as the ball goes wide to Zinchenko, I think he's onside, he crosses low, and when Odegaard forces it into the six-yard box, Nketiah raises a leg high to direct a fine flick past De Gea which sends the home fans into raptures! That is a striker's instinct! Arsenal are going five clear; United have conceded late doors for the second time in a week!
88'
ERIKSEN DRIVES FORWARD
I know! He darts into space and sends a riser curling wide of the near post.
86'
WAN-BISSAKA TURNS ANOTHER CROSS BEHIND
De Gea fields the corner then, as he goes to clear, Nketiah stretches out an arm and he goes does for a little rest.

UNITED MAKE FIRST CONTACT
Te ball bobbles out, McTominay's clearance hitting Gabriel and playing in Nketiah! This must be! But when he turns and laces low, De Gea vaults low to tip away! That is a brilliant save!

DEBUT FOR TROSSARD
He replaces Martinelli.
80'
DE GEA PUNCHES THE CORNER
Arsenal maintain pressure, and Bruno defends the back post well, the ball bobbles about in the air, United get it away, Arsenal go at them again, again Big Bruno Fernandes guards the back post, and eventually the whistle goes because he's hurt his head. I daresay he'll be OK.
79'
NKETIAH GOES AT WAN-BISSAKA ON THE OUTSIDE
And a signature slide-challenge wins the ball superbly. He's so good at those, and here he is again, getting in on Nketiah to concede a corner.
78'
BRUNO WELEASES WASHFORD
And Ramsdale comes out, misses the ball ... and does he impede Rashford as Tomiyasu cleans up? The ref and VAR say nae.
76'
IT'S GONE A BIT SCRAPPY
You get the feeling both sides are steadying for a final push.
74'
BRUNO IS NOW PLAYING DOWN THE RIGHT
Where Antony was. It makes some sense - he has to stay on the pitch and has the quality to do something from anywhere - but he's feeding on scraps out wide, doesn't have the pace to go on the outside, and is now coming in on his weaker foot.
73'
YUP, THESE LAST 10 MINUTES
Arsenal have had 75% possession. They've not threatened loads, but weight of pressure may soon tell.
72'
THESE LAST FEW MINUTES
It's been all Arsenal.
71'
UNITED GET THE CORNER AWAY
And shonuff, Fred is helping Shaw against Saka.

UNITED SEND ON FRED FOR ANTONY
I imagine we'll see him defending that avenue which has given Saka so much joy.
