Ezri Konsa (Arsenal) Aerial at 63'
Match Timeline & Momentum
Commentary
A high ball into the Arsenal box falls kindly for Palmer, who takes a touch to get the ball onto his right foot and burst into the area. He tries to wrap his foot around the ball and find the far corner, but his effort is straight at Raya and at a nice height for a simple save.
OVER THE TOP! Another transitional move from Chelsea is lead by Neto on the right. He cuts the ball back for Gusto, who tries his luck from 25 yards but gets nowhere near the target.
Lavia has been strong in the centre of the park but he's taken off for Gusto, who will join James in midfield.
Arsenal have been dangerous down the right so it's unsurprising to see Hato make way for Chavarria.
Tzolis also goes into the book for calling for Lacroix to get a yellow card.
Lacroix goes into the book for hauling Tzolis down as Arsenal looked to break.
