    A very comfortable night for Arsenal in the end. They really showed their strengths in the 2nd half, and Nottingham Forest hardly had a shot on target. Gunners fans should be excited about the future Arsenal team

  • 45'
    HT: Arsenal 1-0 Nottingham Forest. Not the liveliest of matches. Arsenal have looked pretty comfortable here and half had a few chances. The future generation of Arsenal look promising. Forest, though, are still in the match and I wouldn't write them off shooting in to their own fans 2nd half.

at Arsenal

    Saka coming on for Smith-Rowe
  • 44'
    Smith-Rowe, could be concussed
  • 44'
    Looks like a nasty one, he'll be getting stretchered off.
  • 41'
    Unlucky!!! Terrific skills from Tierney down the left. He puts in a cross for Smith-Rowe, who's header is saved by Muric. Looks like Smith-Rowe has been injured in the process.
  • 36'
    Huge travelling support behind the goals tonight. Fair play to all those travelling from Nottingham to London on a Tuesday night.
  • 31'
    Lovely goal. Nelson plays a lofting pass to Chambers, who crosses it first time to Martinelli, who slots it home. Debut goal for the Brazilian.

    Another chance for Arsenal. Nelson whips the corner in and Mustafi flicks it just over the bar.
  • 14'
    Nelson crosses in to Chambers who can't quite connect.
  • 13'
    Torreira tries a shot on the half volley but sends it into orbit. Still goalless.

    Last time these two teams met, Forest won 4-2 in a FA Cup tie in 2018. Last match in London was in 1998, ending 2-1 to 'the Gunners'. Forest haven't won away to Arsenal since 1989!!!
