    PHE.

    NO.

    ME.

    NAL.

    David de Gea first dives low to keep out Alexandre Lacazette's stinging shot.

    The Spain international then recovers in a nanosecond to block, point-blank, Alexis Sanchez follow-up.

    Non. Stop.

    Jesse Lingard bears down on goal and produces superb stop from Petr Cech. The ball, however, loops towards goal and bounces off the bar.

    The follow-up effort from Anthony Martial comes off the back of Hector Bellerin.

    And there's more...

    At the other end, Alex Iwobi thumps a shot at De Gea, but the Spaniard saves. Again.

    I need to breathe.

    GOAL - Arsenal 1-2 Man Utdpublished at 49 mins

    Alexandre Lacazette

    Did someone press the pause button?

    So, the free-kick in floated into the area. Everybody appears to stand still bar Aaron ramsey, who springs the offside trap and brings down the ball.

    Now, it was either a brilliant pass back to Alexandre Lacazette or poor control, but anyway, the Frenchman fires in to pull a goal back for the Gunners.

    Arsenal are back on the attack.

    Alexis Sanchez delivers a low in-swinger but United clear from the feet of sub Alex Iwobi.

    An early response would be just the tonic for the home side.

    Ryan Neal: how Man United are still in the lead at half time baffles me. Arsenal have been dominating the game and should at least have a goal.

    Sule Sadiq: De Gea is showing exactly why he is the best keeper in the world.

    Thomas Knights: If De Gea isn't the best keeper in the World he is definitely the best shot stopper in the world, Giroud needed for Arsenal

    Lukaku almost scores for Arsenal!!!!!

    A free-kick is floated to the far post by Alexis Sanchez. Lukaku, under pressure from Granit Xhaka, falls to the turf and inadvertently produces acrobatics forcing a great one-handed save from his own keeper!

    What on earth is happening?!!

  17. GOOD SAVES!published at 45 mins

    Arsenal 0-2 Man Utd

    David de Gea makes two decent stops.

    The first from Hector Bellerin, whose arrowed effort is pushed away by the Spaniard.

    The second is launched by Sead Kolasinac, and bounces awkwardly in front of the keeper before he again pushes the ball away.

    Still brewing.

    Alexis Sanchez. He's not quite been at the races so far - not even at the train station to take you to the races.

    The Chile forward gives away possession again in midfield, although the Gunners recover the ball.

    Luckily for the home side they have enough quality in attack to compensate.

    One of those is Aaron Ramsey whose eight-yard shot is well saved by David de Gea.

    Can Arsenal get a goal before HT?
