MATCH EVENTS

1’: We’re off!

2’: Well that was quick. Declan Rice slides through Galena’s shins and gets a card 63 seconds into the match

21’: WOWWWWW. Galena is stunned here, he has a big chance, he volleys it right into the far post and it smacks back to him and he fires the rebound and wide of the near post! How did he miss that??

33’: Havertz lays it back to Trossard who mishits it way off-target. Arsenal has been completely stymied so far.

35’: Arsenal wins a corner kick and Saliba’s bouncing header at the back post goes away from goal.

38’: Nico González tries from distance and puts it over the far corner by a few yards.

40’: Evanilson fires at an angle, Raya down quick to deny the shot.

45+1’: Another Arsenal corner, Havertz heads it wide at the back post.

HT FC Porto 0-0 Arsenal Arsenal look pretty frustrated out there but that double-miss from Galena should leave Porto frustrated too.


46’: We’re back!

52’: Francisco Conceição cynically stops the attack by pulling back Martinelli

56’: An Arsenal free kick goes over everyone to Trossard at the far side but he volleys it off-target. Whistle for a foul anyway.

57’: Jakub Kiwior carded for fouling Conceição on the right edge of the box

61’: Kai Havertz catches Pepê in the face with his elbow

62’: Nico González into the book for pulling back Havertz with both hands

74’: Arsenal substitution: Jorginho on for Leonardo Trossard

81’: Porto substitution: Iván Jaime on for Nico González

85’: Porto double sub: Toni Martínez and Gonçalo Borges on for Evanilson and Francisco Conceição

90’: Porto substitution: Stephen Eustáquio on for Wendell

90+2’: Arsenal takes a free kick into the box, Gabriel heads it over.

90+4’: GOAL PORTO!!! In the most boring game I have ever seen, Galeno fires from way way out and scores an absolute world-class goal into the far side!

90+5’: Ødegaard fires from a long distance out and puts it very wide.

FT FC Porto 1-0 Arsenal For 93 minutes and thirty seconds this was the least exciting match I had ever seen. Ended well though!
