ARSENAL 1-2 SEVILLA
Oxlade-Chamberlain is having a superb game. He uses his quick feet to get down the right byline but his cross can't find anyone in a red shirt.
Chance for Ramsey!
Lacazette spots Ramsey making a run through the middle and lifts the ball over the Sevilla defence. Ramsey controls with his head but can only toe-poke into the hands of Rico.

Goal Sevilla! N'Zonzi!

Half time!
All square at the break. Chances for both sides with Banega and Welbeck putting in impressive first half performances.
Big chance for Sevilla!
Nolito is released behind the Arsenal defence and is one on one with Cech. He decides to square the ball to feed Ben Yedder but Arsenal captain Koscielny gets there to intercept the cross and clear the danger. Nolito should have been selfish!
Yellow card Sevilla
First booking of the game goes to Escudero who prevents Bellerin from breaking down the right.
The game is starting to open up
Banega is pulling the strings for Sevilla in the middle of the park. Arsenal need to get closer to him before he finds the perfect defence-splitting ball.
On the other hand, Welbeck is stretching the Sevilla back line. The forward has got in behind a number of times in the first half.
Sevilla chance!
Banega clips a ball over the top, Eleneny can only clear the ball as far as Nolito who catches the ball on the volley perfectly. Cech looks well beaten but the strike drift just wide.
Quick feet from Ramsey
Ramsey dances his way through three Sevilla defenders and lets fly from just inside the box but it goes wide from the Welshman.
Arsenal chance!
Welbeck bursts down the left this time and easily beats Carrico. He gets into a shooting position and toe-pokes his effort into the side netting. Welbeck should have either taken that on his left foot or lifted his head to see Lacazette ready and waiting in the middle of the box.
Chance for Arsenal!
Oxlade-Chamberlain bursts forward down the left. He crosses and finds Bellerin in plenty of space at the far post , the Spaniard take it on the half volley but can't get over his shot. Big chance for Arsenal to open the scoring.
Wild from Oxlade-Chamberlain
The Ox steps up but sends his effort high over the crossbar.
Free kick on the edge of the box for Arsenal
