GOAL! Man City 1-0 Arsenal | Erling Haaland 9'

Perfect start for City!

There’s a huge amount of space between Gabriel and Saliba... don’t want to be doing that with Haaland around.

Savinho plays him clean through on goal and there’s no doubt about the outcome from that point. Ruthless finish.

7 mins: First chance... big chance, too.

Savinho fires the ball into the box, it’s a brilliant first touch for Gundogan. Waits for it to drop, should do better with the volley but it’s wide.

Man City 0-0 Arsenal

3 mins: Well, that was a dramatic start. VAR has cleared it and on we go.

Fair to say Rodri isn’t looking too thrilled with life as he waits on the touchline, before eventually being called back on.

My esteemed colleague and I are sat right behind the Arsenal analysts.

Will see how quickly they turn round and ask for our insight.

3 MINUTES AGO

Man City 0-0 Arsenal

1 min: We’ve played about four seconds and Rodri has gone down.

Ball played back to Ederson, Havertz jogs forward and clashes with Rodri, who is holding his face.

Was there an elbow from Havertz? Physios are on for Rodri, who is still down.
