  1. CLOSE!published at 20:26 British Summer Time 3 October 2019

    Arsenal 3-0 Standard Liege

    Former Tottenham man Paul-Jose M'Poku makes a yard for himself onto his left foot, but screws a shot over.

    He looks decisively uncomfortable taking that on his weaker foot.

  2. CLOSE!published at 20:25 British Summer Time 3 October 2019

    Arsenal 3-0 Standard Liege

    Almost a first-half hat-trick for Gabriel Martinelli but his flicked effort at the near post is gathered by Vanja Milinkovic-Savic.

    Joe Willock (21 mins)

    Arsenal are running riot.

    This is fortunate but the home fans won't care.

    Reiss Nelson's shot is blocked in the area by visiting defender Zinho Vanheusden, but it drops to the feet of Joe Willock to take a touch and stroke in a clinical finish into the bottom corner.

    Game over.

    Paul: This Martinelli looks like a right player. Bullet header for first goal followed by absolute quality finish for his 2nd. and he's only 18..

    Arsenal 2-0 Standard Liege

    Great game this, after the borefest earlier.

    Samuel Bastien swings in a free-kick which Arsenal goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez has to dive to his right to push away.

  10. CLOSE!published at 20:18 British Summer Time 3 October 2019

    It should be three!

    Joe Willock in acres of space in the box but he volleys over from 10 yards out.

    Gabriel Martinelli (15 mins)

    He just cannot stop scoring.

    Arsenal score twice in three minutes and Gabriel Martinelli has both goals.

    This is a stunning goal from the player who models himself on Cristiano Ronaldo, taking Reiss Nelson's ball in the box, turning and curling a delightful strike into the far corner.

    Gabriel Martinelli (13 mins)

    That boy again.

    The two summer signings link up for the opener.

    Kieran Tierney on the overlap, whips in a cross to the near post which Gabriel Martinelli stoops and flicks in a wonderful header into the roof of the net.

    The £6m Brazilian looks to be a bargain, his third goal in just his second start for the Gunners.

  14. CLOSE!published at 20:13 British Summer Time 3 October 2019

    Arsenal 0-0 Standard Liege

    Arsenal goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez is a lucky, lucky boy.

    He comes for a corner and ends up punching the air, allowing Kostas Laifis to get a header on which is cleared off the line by Shkodran Mustafi.

    Mergim Vojvoda hooks a follow-up over.

    A real let-off for the hosts.

    Arsenal 0-0 Standard Liege

    Reiss Nelson has been the best player on the pitch in the opening few minutes.

    The former Hoffenheim loanee shifts the ball onto his right peg but drills a low shot into the grasp of former Manchester United youth team goalkeeper Vanja Milinkovic-Savic.

    There was a young striker called Ole His face was perpetually jolly He took the top job And now he just sobs And constantly has to say sorry

    52 million for that clueless Fred? However you slice it, that's a lot of bread!

    Besiktas 0-1 Wolves

    Wolves

    Wolves skipper Conor Coady: "We made it hard for ourselves, it's a tough place to come but we dug in. To keep a clean sheet is very pleasing and the win is very special.

    "We've always got to feel our way in to the game, that's the sort of team we are. We'd have liked a bit more of the ball so we could play but we dug in and it's a very satisfying win.

    "It's huge for us. We don't want to make up the numbers, we want to compete to win. We would have liked to have played better today but we won and that's the most important thing."

    Bright start from Arsenal.

    Reiss Nelson getting his opportunity in the first team, spinning quickly 25 yards out but blazing over.
