Game on!
This is the moment Rob Holding conceded a penalty for a foul on Matty Cash
83' - Danny Welbeck wants a penalty after a coming together with Michael Mancienne. Jon Moss waves play on though and that looks like the correct decision.

Jon Moss points to the spot for the second time in this half as Mathieu Debuchy brings Armand Traore down in the box!
GOAL! Nottingham Forest 4-2 Arsenal (Dowell)
85' - Kieran Dowell scores from the spot to extend Forest's lead - but it's not without controversy.

There's been so much drama in this match!
89' - Red card for Forest.
Joe Worrall is shown a straight red for a reckless challenge on Chuba Akpom!
90' - There will be a minimum of four added minutes at the end of the match.
90+2' - Chance for Arsenal!
David Vaughan concedes possession deep inside the Forest half and that allows Eddie Nketiah a free shot on goal. He attempts to dink Jordan Smith but the goalkeeper gets a hand to the ball to deny the young striker.
