Arsenal now look a little out of sorts. That penalty has taken all the wind out of them, it seems like. In any event, Spurs on the counter, Kane gets a header to a Perisic ball!! And Ramsdale saves.

Wayward pass by Son who tries to dink one over the arsenal high line to Kane but vthat just goes awry. Sums up Tottenham's day thus far.

Great one by Son. Floats it in the Gunners' box and Richarlison is there!!! But what a save by Ramsdale!!
Arsenal have 77%of possession so far as Spurs are struggling to string any meaningful pass together. Not the start they wanted.
Uffff. Martinelli takes it from his chest and volleys. Off Lloris' post and out!! Corner again. Curious corner as the goes out of play. Not the curler Martinelli wanted.
Tottenham get the ball rolling and Xhaka with a dangeous flick already which Lenglet puts over for a corner. Nothing off it ultimately.
