    Danger signs at 15-30, and then again at deuce, but Konta has - like all the world's top players - a knack of coming up with a terrific serve at the crucial moments.

    This game is tougher for Konta but after a couple of dueces she comes through and leads 4-1.

    Halep looks a little puzzled. No wonder.

    Wilson also beleives Arsenal will now have to win three of their remaining four games to reach the knockout stage:

    "They've got an uphuill battle, to get 9 points they've got to win against Bayern Munich at home, and then against both Zagreb and Olympiakos.

    "It's such a hard league and Mourinho and Wenger are trying like made to make sure they've got the fittest side for any one game, but I think with the case last night I do think Petr Cech should've played."

    Halep looks a lot happier now. She's just managed to win a game.

    Then again you'd expect the 24-year-old to improve given that she is the second bets player in the world and the highest ranked player at this tournament.

    Can Konta maintain the levels on her own serve? We're about to find out. 3-1 to the Brit.

    Johanna Konta's last 16 match at the Wuhan Open in China is under way - and the British number one has made a stonking start.

    She won her opening service game, broke Halep in the next, and has just moved 3-0 ahead.

    Stunning stuff.

    Former Arsenal goalkeeper Bob Wilson says Arsene Wenger was wrong to rest Petr Cech for last night's Champions League game with Olympiakos.

    The Gunners lost 3-2 at home and now face an uphill struggle to qualify.

    "When you're in the position of having lost your first game you need a win to get the first three of 9 or 10 points you need. The goalkeeping position is so important, and we've got one of the best in the world now, so you play him until there are other games like the Capital One Cup," he said.

    "When you are desperate and you've got Bayern Munich ahead of you, you've got to play your best team."

    "Wales' players are back at the Millennium Stadium after their pulsating win against England, with attention now turned to tomorrow's match against Fiji.

    "The Pacific Islanders have been something of a bogey team for Wales in recent years, drawing here in Cardiff in 2010 and famously dumping Wales out of the 2007 World Cup.

    "Wales would rather think of their most recent World Cup meeting, when they thrashed Fiji 66-0 in 2011.

    "But head coach Warren Gatland and his players have been eager to stress that previous fixtures between these teams will have little bearing on tomorrow's encounter, where victory could take Wales to the brink of the quarter-finals."
