  1. 'Fabianski gets caught out'

    Arsenal 2-1 West Ham

    Mark Schwarzer
    Former Middlesbrough & Fulham keeper on BBC Radio 5 Live

    Fabianski will definitely be disappointed with that. It was a good, hard finish into that corner and I don't think Fabianski was expecting it - he thought it was going to get whipped across goal.

    He gets caught out, just sticks out a right leg and tries to put a block in but gets beaten at the near post. Arsenal, for the first time in this game really, raised the tempo and played the ball out wide really quickly.

    They've got the rewards from it, and it was a very good finish.

  2. Arsenal 2-1 West Ham

    Gabriel Martinelli scores a goalGetty Images

    Gabriel Martinelli has scored six goals in 15 Premier League appearances this season, already equalling his best English league goals return in a single campaign (in 29 games last season).

  3. Arsenal 2-1 West Ham

    West Ham are on the ropes now. They concede a needless corner. Can the Gunners wrap this one up?

  4. Arsenal 2-1 West Ham

    I said at half-time this was a big test for Arsenal's title credentials. Still half an hour to go but they are coming through this with flying colours.

  5. Arsenal 2-1 West Ham

    Arsenal fans chant Arsene Wenger's name. The ex-Gunners boss/now Fifa guy is at the game and waves to the supporters.

  6. goal

    GOAL - Arsenal 2-1 West Ham

    Gabriel Martinelli

    Everything about this one is intentional. Bukayo Saka wins the ball off England team-mate Declan Rice and finds Martin Odegaard. He passes to Granit Xhaka, who feeds Gabriel Martinelli with the Brazilan charging into the box.

    Martinelli hammers the ball past Lukasz Fabianski at his near post. The West Ham keeper sticks out a foot but can't keep it out. Poor goalkeeping really.

    Saka should have played every minute of World Cup. He is England's Messi

  8. Arsenal 1-1 West Ham

    Bukayo Saka is the first Arsenal player to score in three consecutive Boxing Day games since *clenches fists (see 21:06 GMT)* Thierry Henry (2002-2004)

  9. Arsenal 1-1 West Ham

    Probably a fair scoreline now. Can that Arsenal goal from nowhere give them a big boost?

  10. Arsenal 1-1 West Ham

    Ally McCoist on the Amazon Prime punditry is not having that as a Martin Odegaard assist. But my fantasy football team very much are.

  11. goal

    GOAL - Arsenal 1-1 West Ham

    Bukayo Saka

    Arsenal are level and it's a funny* one. Martin Odegaard totally drags a terrible shot from 25 yards... that lands at the feet of the unmarked Bukayo Saka in the box.

    It's a lovely first touch from Saka and he slots it into the bottom corner.

    *not funny for West Ham fans.

  12. Arsenal 0-1 West Ham

    That is a very selective stat, admittedly.

  13. Arsenal 0-1 West Ham

    David Moyes making notesGetty Images

    David Moyes is winless in 70 Premier League away matches as a manager against Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool and Manchester United (D21 L49).

    Just under 40 minutes until that could be changed.

  14. Arsenal 0-1 West Ham

    Kieran Tierney is OK to continue, thankfully.

  15. Arsenal 0-1 West Ham

    Moments later Jarrod Bowen catches Kieran Tierney in the arm with an accidental elbow and the Arsenal defender is in pain.

  16. Arsenal 0-1 West Ham

    That corner comes to nothing.

    Jarrod Bowen is bundled over by Manx Scot Kieran Tierney and West Ham have a free-kick in midfield.

  17. Arsenal 0-1 West Ham

    Better from Arsenal. Martin Odegaard pulls the ball back for Thomas Partey, whose low 25-yard curler is saved by Lukasz Fabianski. I don't think it was going in anyway but the keeper had to be sure.

  18. Arsenal 0-1 West Ham

    Oh hello. Michail Antonio runs onto a ball down the right and into the box before slamming in a shot from an angle which Arsenal keeper Aaron Ramsdale saves at his near post.

  19. KICK-OFF

    Arsenal 0-1 West Ham

    A good chance for Arsenal to show their mettle here in the title race. And a great chance for West Ham to start their climb away from the drop zone.

    Craig: Arsenal completely on top but the lack of any natural striker able to finish is striking! This is a game we need to be winning before our next tough fixtures
