Arsenal 2-0 Wolves
21. Wolves' reserve goalkeeper Dan Bentley is warming up, and I think we're about to see a change between the sticks for the visitors.

19. Jose Sa appears to have an issue, and is moving very gingerly.
I'm not sure if the Wolves goalkeeper will be able to go on for much longer, although shows real bravery here to throw himself at the feet of Trossard, who thought he was about to make it three.

17. Almost 50% of the game has been played in Wolves' defensive third so far.
In fact, the visitors have only made it into Arsenal's defensive third twice, and have yet to touch the ball in their opponents' penalty area.

15. Gabriel Jesus' role so far cannot be overplayed.
The striker may not be hitting the target, but he continues to do so much for the team in attack and he links the play, makes space for other and creates opportunities.

13. Martin Odegaard makes it two, finishing off a one-touch masterclass!
Declan Rice switches the ball wide to Bukayo Saka on the right, and although the forward's cross is overhit, Oleksandr Zinchenko races forward to keep the attack alive.
The left-back then plays an electric one-two with Gabriel Jesus to cut the Wolves defence open before cutting back for the captain to power in from 15 yards.
It's two! It's sensational! Is it game over?
It's two!
Arsenal 1-0 Wolves
10. The visitors are completely pinned in here.
Apparently, they have had 38% of the possession in the opening ten minutes but I've no idea how.

8. Normal service has immediately been resumed with the home side pushing and pressing.
Wolves need to get a grip here and quick otherwise the game will be beyond them before long.

6. It didn't take long!
Arsenal have the early goal, and once again it's Bukayo Saka!
Intricate play in and around the Wolves' penalty area had the the visitors at sixes and sevens, and when Takehiro Tomiyasu flicked a quick pass through, Saka took advantage of a kind ricochet off Craig Dawson.
Faced only with Jose Sa in goal, the the Gunners forward kept his cool and smartly pulled a low shot beyond the Wolves keeper to break the deadlock.
Early breakthrough!
Arsenal 0-0 Wolves
5. Arsenal continue to play the game almost solely in Wolves' half.
The visitors are already dropping very, very deep.
Arsenal 0-0 Wolves
3. A positive start from Arsenal, who have kept possession almost from kick-off.
Martinelli looks to make an early
