    GOOOOOOAAAAALLLLL FOR ARSENAL!!!!!! It's Jesus who gets another after the Brazilian charges into the box before meeting Trossard's pin-point cut-back to fire home emphatically. Surely game over now.

    Leeds have a half-chance here with a free-kick they'll be able to get into the box.

    Finally back underway here after what seemed like a long 15 minutes.
  • 45'
    HT: Arsenal 1-0 Leeds. Home side manage to get in to the break one up after converting from the spot. Brazilian Jesus makes the difference and they, as it stands, re-extend their lead to 8 points at the top. Leeds have a couple of half-chances but nothing doing against Ramsdale.
  • 43'
    Odegaard down injured after a late challenge from Harrison.

    Arteta's men not happy with just one, and they're going for yet more here, but Leeds flood the box quickly enough to snub that attack out.
