    Holds possession through four players and gets off a well-hit shot inside the box. Shot not quite good enough to challenge Martinez, but a really sweet run.

    However, raise your hand if you think Chelsea can hold Arsenal scoreless - no one? Yup.

    I just admire how Chris is playing with so much confidence now. The kind of swagger i haven't seen in an attacker since Dempsey-- and with more skill.

    Chelsea playing with excellent confidence. Kovacic is dominating midfield.

    Yellow to Kovacic, though. Wonder how many minutes they're Frank is willing to run out Kante.

    pulisic takes him off the ball easily but giroud's chip is just astray. otherwise he was in again.

    Anyone hazard a guess as to why Rudiger was all the way in Arsenal's box while Arsenal had possession? Haven't seen than a long time.

    It should be said that the lead up to the goal started with a nice through ball from Pulisic. He did very well to create the danger and stick with it to get the goal.

    Dave yanks down Aubameyang for a PK. I think it's the right call and a yellow.

    It's a soft pen... but VAR doesn't take these away usually. Would be surprised if this was taken off.

    Started fouling him outside the box maybe, but should it then be a red?

    that’s either a red card or a penalty right?

    Arsenal is finding the seams in Chelsea's defense way too easily.
