***FULL TIME AT THE EMIRATES***

Arsenal 1 - 2 Manchester United

United move into the Top 4 of the Premier League.

22 Nov 2014

90' + 7 - Willson booked for time wasting.  Di Maria and Chambers square up... tempers flaring at the Emriates.  Giroud goes into the ref's book as well.

22 Nov 2014

90' +5 - WHAT A HIT BY GIROUD! That is some finish by the frenchman as the ball comes over his left shoulder he controls it and hits it with his left foot into the top left hand corner.  Only a stunning strike like that could beat De Gea today.  WOW!  Can Arsenal find an equaliser?  

22 Nov 2014

GOAL - ARSENAL

22 Nov 2014

90' +3 - United break again and this time Rooney feeds Di Maria but he shoots wide with only Martinez to beat.

22 Nov 2014

There will be EIGHT additional minute due to the injuries to Wilshere and Szczesny.

22 Nov 2014

88' - Manchester United substitution.  Here is something you don't see often.  A substitute is substituted as Young is replaced by Carrick. He doesn't seem to be injured either.

22 Nov 2014

Arsenal 0 - 2 Man United

5 minutes to go at the Emirates (plus some added injury time).

22 Nov 2014

85' - You just knew this was coming, United catch Arsenal on the break. Di Maria in acres of space, Monreal is pulled out of position to close him down and he slips the ball to Rooney who slots home past Martinez in the Arsenal goal.  That was United's first shot on target today.

22 Nov 2014

GOAL - MAN UNITED

22 Nov 2014

82' - Another attack by Arsenal dealt with by the young United defence.  Arsenal trying to be to intricate with their passing here.

78' - Arsenal with wave after wave of attacks but United holding out.  Cazorla has a shot well blocked by two United players.

22 Nov 2014

75' - Arsenal desperate to find an equaliser and bring on a striker for a midfielder. Giroud is returning from a lengthy injury layoff.

22 Nov 2014

75' - Arsenal substitution. Ramsey is replaced by Giroud.

22 Nov 2014

74' - Manchester United substitution.  Van Persie is replaced by Wilson. Boo's ring out around the Emirates for the ex Arsenal man as he runs off.

22 Nov 2014

70' - Corner to Arsenal but easily cleared by Van Persie at the near post.

22 Nov 2014

69' - Corner to United, Fellaini heads wide. United still up by 1 - 0. 

22 Nov 2014

67' - Another chance for the Gunners.  This time Welbeck cushions a header into the parth of Cazorla but he doesn't test De Gea enough and only shoots straight at him.  Well setup by Welbeck, the former United man however.

22 Nov 2014

66' - Manchester United looking more confident now as Young does well down the left.  His cross is just cleared by the Arsenal defence before it can reach Van Persie.

22 Nov 2014

49' - De Gea saves United again!  This time the ball comes to Welbeck in space on the left, he cuts into the big box and shoots from a tight angle, but the big Man United shot stopper blocks it with his body.

22 Nov 2014

47' - First corner of the half to Arsenal after some a mazy run down the right by Oxlaide-Chamberlain.  He is having a great game for the Gunners. Corner comes to nothing.

22 Nov 2014

***SECOND HALF UNDERWAY AT THE EMIRATES***

Can Arsenal make their dominance count?

22 Nov 2014

***HALF TIME AT THE EMIRATES STADIUM***

Arsenal 0 - 0 Manchester United

Arsenal have looked very impressive but have yet to find a breakthrough.  Man United have had one or two chances of their own but at this point have De Gea to thank for keeping them in the game.

22 Nov 2014

43' - Some discomfort for United as an Arsenal corner is not dealt with.  De Gea blocks a shot which comes to Welback with his back to goal.  He tries an audacious back heel which goes well wide.

22 Nov 2014

42' - Arsenal burst away down the left and Sanchez in acres of space cannot find Welbeck in the centre.  The pass went behind the Arsenal forward.  He is livid with his team mate.

22 Nov 2014

40' - Successive corner kicks to United but they cannot take advantage of any of them.

22 Nov 2014

38' - Rooney with a great chance for United after some find work by Di Maria and Van Persie but his shot is blocked.  Man United have had a few good chances.

22 Nov 2014

36' - Down the other end, Ramsey gets the ball in acres of space, but he rushes his shot and shoots well over.  he probably could have looked to use his support there.

22 Nov 2014

35' - And out of nowhere Di Maria fashions a chance, his left footed curler goes just wide of the left hand upright.

22 Nov 2014

33' - Sanchez in space again for Arsenal but his shot is again saved by De Gea.  That's 9 attempts on goal by Arsenal this half so far.

22 Nov 2014

32' - Free kick to United, swung in by Di Maria but it is too deep and Szczesny plucks the ball out of the air.

22 Nov 2014

31' - United with a rare attack through Van Persie and Di Maria but Arsenal hold their shape and it comes to nothing.

22 Nov 2014

29' - Foul by Wilshere on Fellaini just outside the Man United box which leads to a heated argument between the two players.  Rooney comes over and ushers his England team mate Wilshere away from the flash point.

22 Nov 2014

26' - Arsenal still looking for a goal for their dominance, they force another corner after some nifty footwork by Sanchez leads to a shot which is blocked.  The corner comes to nothing.

22 Nov 2014

25' - Corner to Arsenal, Sanchez takes but Man United clear eventually.

22 Nov 2014

Sublime ball by Sanchez to Oxlaide-Chamberlain in that move, but De Gea played the sweeper-keeper role to perfection.

21' - Another decent chance for Arsenal, but Oxlaide-Chamberlain's shot is blocked by De Gea who closed down the space on the Arsenal man very quickly.
