Brentford 0-0 Arsenal – Martinelli yellow card

56. Gabriel Martinelli is the first Arsenal player to go into the book this evening.

The Brazilian is carded for catching Bryan Mbeumo with a late challenge.

Brentford 0-0 Arsenal

54. Brentford are beginning to fancy this, and that could be just what suits Arsenal.

The Gunners so far have had trouble breaking through the home side’s defence, but with more home players committed forward, the visitors may feel they can pounce.

Brentford 0-0 Arsenal

52. So sharp from Brentford!

The hosts almost catch Arsenal unaware with Wissa flicking a hopeful ball forward into the path of Mbeumo.

It leaves the Cameroonian one-on-one with Gabriel, and he comfortably makes room for a shot that whistles wide of Ramsdale’s near post.

A reminder of the threat that Brentford carry when the opposition least expects it.
