Gabriel goes down in the box with Scott McTominay in attendance. Nothing doing.

Full throttle from both sides again. It's a great watch for spectators.

I'm not convinced with Antony in terms of his pace. He just doesn't seem to have that in his legs.

Brazil international Antony is heavily involved at the start of the second half, bursting clear - but Thomas Partey is on the cover.

Tim: I'm so pleased for Odegaard after the pressure he must have felt signing for Real Madrid at 15 years old and it not really working out. Becoming captain after only one season at Arsenal, and the performances he's putting in to help them to top of the table - he really is fulfilling his potential.

Anon: Tomiyasu on at half-time shows how Arteta is succeeding by being proactive rather than reactive. A lot of managers should learn from those who don't only adapt when things are going badly.

Gordon: Arteta should be in the stands. Who else would get away with his antics?

Now Antony is booked for leaving a leg out on Oleksandr Zinchenko.

I don't know whether White had a muscle problem or something. I know he had been booked and he was involved in quite a lot of situations with Rashford and Antony but I can only assume that he has some kind of problem because he has been a regular starter and finisher with Arsenal this season.

Clothesline from Granit Xhaka on Antony at the start of the second half.

Bradshaw in WWE would have been proud of that one.

Same again, boys. Off we go.

A change for Arsenal for the restart.

Ben White, who was booked, is replaced by Japan international Takehiro Tomiyasu.

Strength in depth.

World Cup top scorers Kylian Mbappe and Lionel Messi have scored once each in competitive games since returning to Paris. Meanwhile...

Back to this thriller then and one man is in a hot streak of form...🔥🔥🔥

This was Brentford’s 58th Premier League game, but the first in which they failed to land a single shot on target. It was the first time the Bees didn’t record a shot on target in any league game since December 2020 against Derby in the Championship.

Brentford

Brentford goalkeeper David Raya, speaking to Premier League Productions: "It is a good point, a good clean sheet. They came out flying in the second half and did enough to win the game, but we dug in and defended well. We kept the ball out of the net. We didn't do enough to take three points so we are happy with a draw in a place like this, which is difficult to come.

"I was bust but I am there to help the team win points. This time I kept the ball out. That is the main thing.

"We lacked a bit of composure, especially in the first half. We rushed things a bit too much when we needed to take more time. In the second half, we had a few transitions but the final pass was not quite there. They had two good blocks. The last party was missing today.

"We are on a really good run, especially in the Premier League. We want to carry on like this. We have got a week off next week so we can prepare for the next game"

Brentford

Brentford manager Thomas Frank, speaking to BBC Match of the Day: "It is an impressive run [we are on] in so many ways. It is so difficult to win a game in the Premier League and to win this many games and now it is eight. That is very impressive. It is only the top six that maybe sometimes do that. We have good consistency in the team. We defended very well today. I don't think we created enough. But compared to earlier this season when we went to Villa and Newcastle - difficult away grounds - we handled it much better today.

"The first half was very even. Maybe we created a few more... not chances but dangerous situations. Leeds put on a lot of pressure in the second half and then I think we go through that and maybe had four or five very good situations that maybe on another day, with a bit more quality, we could have got that 1-0 goal to decide the game. Defensively very good and when we needed David Raya, good saves.

"I can't complain. A clean sheet when you defend well at a difficult away ground. You always want to do more. As I said before the game, Leeds are a fantastic side who play with great intensity. They play front-footed and their pressure is good. It is difficult to play against."

Leeds United

Leeds boss Jesse Marsch, speaking to BBC Match of the Day: "In general, our guys are disappointed. They feel they deserved more and wanted more. But I am pleased with the progress of our team. We look so much more stable and cleaner tactically. The understanding of how we want to play has grown immensely in the last weeks. We are in a good way but it has not always been reflected by the results. We know if we continue to grow like this we will be a good team.

"As I say, we were clean tactically and stable, when we had the ball and when we didn't. We were also very stable against a team that is very good at set-pieces. We prepared carefully for these things, the guys executed it well and they played with confidence. We are moving in the right direction.

"I know Max [Wober] well. He is an incredibly intelligent player. He understands exactly how I want to play, how we want to play. He has fit in seamlessly and is a good communicator. A lot of positives for him on the day.

"One of the things with our team right now is that because they feel the positive momentum, they are not so focused on the table. They are more directly focused on us and how to improve. If we can keep that kind of work going we have big potential with this group. We have more to do, but we feel the energy in the group."

Wolverhampton Wanderers

Wolverhampton Wanderers defender Nathan Collins, speaking to Sky Sports: "City are good but it's a step backwards for us. For where we have come from, from when the gaffer comes in, we've been on the rise we've been doing well.

"That wasn't us today, I thought we could be a lot better than that. We have to look at ourselves, look in the mirror and go again now. We know what we have, we know how good we can be, That's not where the standard should be.

On marking Erling Haaland: "He's a top striker, you can't defend against strikers like that one v one. You need to defend as a team, especially against City. Everyone has to defend, it's not just one player. I don't think you can defend against him alone personally. As I say, we have to dust ourselves down and go again."

"I think the goals are going to come. In previous games we have been a lot better and a lot brighter. Again, goals have to come from everywhere, it has come from defenders at set pieces, it has to come from midfield, it has to come from everywhere so it's a team thing.

On players switching off at times: "You could say I switched off myself, who knows? As I say, it's a team game. We lose together, we win together and we have to go again."

Manchester City

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola, speaking to BBC Match of the Day: "Very pleased. We played two days and a half ago. Happy with the team for everything, recovery. Of course Wolves are not high in the table but we saw it in the second half, the quality they have.

"We competed really well and we scored the goals in the right moments in the second half. We had chances in the first half. In the second half they pushed us a little bit more. Another victory after our victory over Tottenham - it was important to continue in this way.

"We were patient and you know they will play long balls against you. They have the quality to do it with Ruben Neves, Mateus Nunes, Mario Lemina, all the players. They have quality. After the first half especially, with the pace of Adama [Traore], they were always a threat. We were serious and we make a fantastic game.

On Erling Haaland's performance: "The game was under control and it was 0-0. Football is unpredictable in many different things but the team was ready. [Kevin] De Bruyne and [Erling] Haaland's link up is great and we try to have everyone involved so Riyad [Mahrez] is always a good link player and it was good. Haaland is already breaking records; he is quite impressive.

"Most of the games, after two or three goals, he is replaced. Maybe if he played 90 minutes he would have scored more goals but he helps us to win the games. In the past we have had different players, I would say [Sergio] Aguero and Gabi [Jesus] had the sense to score these goals but of course Haaland's presence in these moments is important.

On keeping a clean sheet: "In the second half we conceded a little bit more because they pressed a bit more. They didn't sit back, they were encouraged. I know Julen [Lopetegui] really well and I know he is going to do a fantastic job."

On the crowd: "I prefer they boo and criticise than be silent. I want my fans to demand the maximum when we don't play good, I think that when they are with this energy, the players feel it, I feel it, everyone feels it. They come here to have fun - I think the last years have been fun. So it was just a question of 'come on and let's do it again.'"

Here's the rest of the reaction from the earlier games...

The match has certainly lived up to the billing. It's been a brilliant first half of football. Excellent play, great atmosphere.

High tempo, high stakes as well and the players have shown why they are in this position and Manchester United have shown why they are on their current run. They are confident. The goal from Marcus Rashford is up there with one of the best goals I have seen this season.

More in the second half, please.

Stuart: Arsenal may need to think about settling for a draw, as if they push too much, like they did at Old Trafford, they will get hit on the break and end up with nothing.

Anon: When will a referee pick up Mikel Arteta for constantly leaving his technical area? He is encroaching on the pitch. The laws of the game specifically state that the coach must stay in his technical area and avoid any obstruction of the players. Arteta is virtually playing right-back. He does it every game.
