    Arsenal 0-0 Liverpool

    Oooh.

    Arsenal look to pounce as it's played through the centre. Joel Matip gets an imprtant touch on it. It comes over to the left with Alexandre Lacazette before Granit Xhaka curls it over the bar.

    Not too far away.

    Kicking off a bit. Marc Cucurella isn't happy with how easily Cristian Romero went down under pressure in the box.

    Harish: Arsenal playing very well without the ball. This is so good to watch. Arteta doing a big favor to his mentor if Liverpool lose or draw. Also, Thiago is overrated.

    Ooh there was a VAR check for onside but it's all good. Spurs' two-goal lead stands. Antonio Conte calls for more from his side.

    Harry Kane (57 mins)

    Harry Kane stays onside and he's slipped through the middle.

    He sees Robert Sanchez running out but keeps his cool and slides it past him.

    Easy.

    Arsenal manager Mike Arteta is incredibly animated in his technical area, almost directing every pass. Talk about micro-management.

    Liverpool counterpart Jurgen Klopp is, by his own standards, subdued.

    Not much happening at the Emirates now. Martin Odegaard tries to find Alexandre Lacazette but Fabinho gets a foot in.

  8. PENALTY APPEALpublished at 20:43 Greenwich Mean Time 16 March 2022

    Brighton 0-1 Tottenham

    Solly March swings a deep free-kick in. Nobody is there but it's put behind by Spurs just in case. There's a few appeals for a handball from the corner but nothing given.

  9. YELLOW CARDpublished at 20:42 Greenwich Mean Time 16 March 2022

    Brighton 0-1 Tottenham

    Goalscorer Cristian Romero comes crunching in on Alexis Mac Allister. He's in the book.

    Arsenal 0-0 Liverpool

    Liverpool in possesion again. Thomas Partey can only half-clear it to Fabinho. Another cross comes in from the visitors, it's headed back to Joel Matip but he passes it straight out for a goal kick. Bit sloppy.

    Brighton 0-1 Tottenham

    Oooh.

    Rodrigo Bentancur makes an important clearance as Alexis Mac Allister was waiting to pounce on a curling ball in from the right.

    The resulting corner is headed over by Shane Duffy.

    Getting a nice feisty edge to this game now. A few challenges come in quick succession before Fabinho is fouled by Alexandre Lacazette in the middle.

    Brighton 0-1 Tottenham

    Spurs took a while to get going in this half but this is a half-chance.

    Son Heung-min is slipped in. His shot is blocked, it falls to Rodrigo Bentancur but there's too many bodies around again.

    Arsenal 0-0 Liverpool

    It comes to Cedric Soares in the middle. He has space to shoot and is urged to but he's a long way out. He drags the shot comfortably wide and Alisson watches as it rolls by.

    Brighton 0-1 Tottenham

    Brighton have upped the tempo. Marc Cucurella tees up Pascal Gross. His shot is blocked. They win a corner on the right a few moments later though, which Graham Potter applauds on the touchline.

    Good defending from Gabriel Martinelli. He sprints back to beat Trent Alexander-Arnold to Jordan Henderson's pass.

    "Arsenal, Arsenal, Arsenal" rings around the Emirates in response.

    Brighton get things going with the ball. Marc Cucurella tries to make headway down the left but there's not too many options.

    Eventually it goes back to Shane Duffy.

    Trent Alexander-Arnold whips it in from the right as Sadio Mane waits for it in the middle but it's cut out by Kieran Tierney.
