Arsenal vs Shakhtar Donetsk

Transcript

00:00Good evening everyone. Mild and dry in North London where Arsenal look to build on their

00:08four points so far in the Champions League and Shakhtar Donetsk look for their first goal and

00:12victory. So off we go at the London Stadium. Shakhtar Donetsk of Ukraine kicking from right

00:25to left in this first half. They're 28th at the moment in the fledgling New Look Champions League.

00:31Big group, Arsenal.

00:37It's Pedro Enrique who's starting his sixth game and are on a seven for them. It's a poor clearance away

00:42by the captain, Matt Vienko. Tross out off the Havertz. Flag has stayed down. It's cleared away

00:47by Matt Vienko who recovered after his initial early error. Finding space already, Arsenal.

00:55Played onside by Pedro Enrique and the Ukraine side looks a little bit naive at the moment.

01:03In comes the pressure on the goalkeeper now for the runners from behind. Comes out of

01:07Canofiore. He should have been in. Bent back off the ball and over it went.

01:15Big chance for his second goal for the club. Good corner kick routine. They all go from beyond

01:20the back post and they charge into the near. Goalkeeper under pressure. Defenders under pressure.

01:30Enrique stolen.

01:35Looks for Egguenado is compassionate. Quickly on to Sica. Back to Egguenado. Good football by Shakhtar.

01:41And it's deflected. Of Gabriel.

01:47We've had one or two famous nights in European football. Shakhtar.

01:52But it could be struggling here. Tross out.

01:56Mavut's popped it through to him. It came up awkwardly.

01:59Just lobbed it over the defender. Tross out. Snatched at it a wee bit.

02:12Kind of Fiori up to Havertz. Good center forward hold up play. Martinelli.

02:18To take on Knoplia. Gets the cross in and it's wide by Tross out.

02:23But that's going to be a key area all night long. Martinelli against you. Can Knoplia.

02:38Rice Calipi. Martinelli. Tross out in the middle. Jesus there. Havertz furthers the cross.

02:45Checks back against Knoplia. Calipiore arriving off the post and he don't go. Arsenal lead.

02:49He went in off the unfortunate Dimitro Rysnik for an own goal.

02:55Arsenal have had to wait until the 29th minute to break the deadlock.

03:00Martinelli will want the goal but it's a definite own goal off the keeper.

03:05The ball came off the woodwork. Hit him on the back.

03:08And Arsenal lead. Rice drove on. Shakhtar backed away.

03:13This is the key area. Always going to be all night long. Martinelli against Knoplia.

03:18Stepped inside. Made room for himself. Shot hit the post. And bounced back.

03:27Wall is a poor draw there by Gabriele. A little bit of a stumble. Martinelli got away with it.

03:32There he is again finding Rice.

03:37Havertz is in the middle. Looks for him.

03:40Rysnik redeems himself with the save.

03:47Gabriel Jesus skips against Enrique.

03:50Cross blocked in there by Michalenko. Partey.

03:55Martinelli goes from the Pablo. Jesus plays it in field.

03:58There's a brilliant clearance from Matvienko to deny Kai Havertz a tenth goal in ten home games.

04:08Inviting delicious cross to the far side. Pedro Enrique switched off.

04:13And Matvienko just got there ahead of Havertz.

04:19To clear it away.

04:24Calafiore tried to stab it through.

04:26Pavienko got the block given away by Criscuit. Calafiore again on hat.

04:31Too much pace on the board of Trossard. Comes back to the Belgian international.

04:34Havertz lays it off. Jesus. Good parry by the goalkeeper.

04:40Long leg denied Jesus. And now they can counter Shakhtar with Surikov.

04:46The dangerous player Equinaldo. Oh well well wide.

04:50Got no confidence. Mano hasn't scored in six months.

05:01Calafiore stepping inside.

05:05Martinelli wants it wide. He's isolated with Canopoli.

05:08He's given him all sorts of trouble all night long.

05:09Again allowed to come inside. Truss up with the header wide.

05:12Chetar Donatsk have not learnt the lessons from the first half.

05:20The lessons they failed to learn against Atalanta in their last game.

05:25When the Italian side put in so many dangerous crosses.

05:27Orgogu is in trouble here.

05:38In the end he tries to extricate himself and does.

05:47Havertz has gone wide again as he has done quite often in the game.

05:50Gets it back from Chesu.

05:51Sink comes across.

05:52Come all the way through to Martinelli.

05:54Decent block by Riznik.

05:59Been superb tonight.

06:00Gabriel Martinelli.

06:02Moses on 49 career goals.

06:05Close to a 50th.

06:09Marino stayed onside.

06:12And that's going to be...

06:13I can't know is it.

06:15And Valerie Bondar.

06:18Chesu got a knock.

06:24Stayed in there the Shakhtar defence.

06:26So he's onside.

06:27Came off the defender last.

06:31Penalty to Arsenal.

06:34Crawl on Shakhtar Donatsk.

06:36And Valerie Bondar there.

06:39Look at the way he makes a fist.

06:41To strengthen the arm.

06:45Clear.

06:47What the Shakhtar coach thinks of this.

06:51It's shot on.

06:53Short run up.

06:55Keeper saves.

06:57Villain in the first half.

06:58Unluckily so.

06:59Hero in the second.

07:01Dreadful penalty.

07:04Really poor.

07:06Straight down the middle.

07:10Kits clear.

07:11And they're promising again.

07:15Matt Vienko.

07:16Pedro Henrique.

07:17The left back is up.

07:19Pushed away by Ryan.

07:25That's his busiest moment I think.

07:28There's a foul here on Havertz.

07:32Powerfully pushed away by Ryan.

07:33Torchino.

07:41Luis Skelly.

07:42Martinelli holds.

07:44The determined Knoplia in front of him.

07:47He gets the cross in though.

07:48Stabbing out of foot his right.

07:49He gets the cross.

07:53But.

07:55They've still been in the game.

07:56And they still are in the game.

08:00Sudikov.

08:00Little ball off by Kevin.

08:02Gets it back again.

08:04This is Pedrino.

08:06And Ryawain called upon.

08:07Pulled off a very good save.

08:09Mark of a good goalkeeper.

08:11Had little to do.

08:12And when he was called upon.

08:14He did very well.

08:15Pedrino has been lively.

08:19Since he came off the bench.

08:20That's a really top save.

08:23And now Sudikov.

08:25He's their golden boy.

08:27Kris Kiv.

08:28Dangerous cross in the middle.

08:29Big chance.

08:30And Ryawain had to come and get it.

08:32And it really was a big chance.

08:34Kris Kiv I think it was.

08:36Oh no.

08:37It was a really good chance.

08:38That dropped in there to Marlon Gomez.

08:42And what a poor header.

08:43Almost came off his shoulder.

08:46Havetz will keep it in the corner.

08:48Arsenal cling on to that victory.

08:51An own goal by the keeper.

08:52Originally Goulet to save the penalty.

08:54From Njando Trossard.

08:56Narrow margins.

08:57Arsenal have squeaked it.

08:591-0.

09:00It's Arsenal though who win this one.

09:02And it's Arsenal who go to seven points.

09:05With a 1-0 victory.

09:06towards 4-2.

09:15Sports from across the world.
