49 mins: CHANCE BRIGHTON! Brighton 1-1 Arsenal
Well, it's less of a chance compared to just good play.
Solly March finds himself some room about 30 yards from goal and he takes aim. The ball is probably going wide but he touches it behind for a corner anyway.
A good effort.
53 mins: CHANCE BRIGHTON! Brighton 1-1 Arsenal
Solly March makes room for himself on the right-hand side and crosses it in with his left peg.
Propper meets the cross with his head but watches it sail narrowly wide of the net.
CHANCE BRIGHTON! Brighton 1-1 Arsenal
Good football from the Seagulls sees Gross swap sides towards Locadia on the left.
He lays it off for the oncoming Propper who gets two bites at the cherry and his second one is a good chance.
Sadly, his second one goes narrowly wide.
60 mins: Lacazette is replaced by Aaron Ramsey.
Very strange from Emery but who am I to question him?
65 mins: Chance Arsenal! Brighton 1-1 Arsenal
Aubameyang has had a good chance gone for Arsenal as he couldn't quite the ball down and Duffy saw the ball back to Ryan.
73 mins: Chance Arsenal! Brighton 1-1 Arsenal
Good work from Ramsey finds Maitland Niles on the right hand side but he's off balance.
He still manages to dig out a cross but Brighton clear.
Can Arsenal get some momentum?
