F/T: 1-0 Arsenal Yep, totally just threw up in a mouth there. Bloody hell.

No goal! Raya was fouled.

1-1

Six minutes to be added on.

What a time to score your first goal since December. Superb from Odegaard in the build-up.

TROSSARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Madueke on for Saka.

Raya saves point blank to deny Fernandes.

Arsenal want a handball in the box. Referee and VAR say no.

West Ham clear another one off the line.

Might just be Odegaard and Havertz for now. Madueke has put his training top back on. Eze and Zubimendi off.

Looks like Odegaard, Havertz and Madueke are coming on.

Mosquera now on for Calafiori at half-time. Feels like Arteta has made a bit of a mess of dealing with that White injury.

H/T: 0-0 Arsenal started so well, had a number of chances but couldn't take them and West Ham ended the half back in the game. Replacing the injured White with Zubimendi and moving Rice to right-back hasn't worked. It's taken Rice out of the midfield battle and West Ham have benefitted.

Zubimendi is coming on.

Looks like Ben White has done his knee. He looks in a fair bit of pain. Seemed to jar his leg making a challenge.

Calafiori's header is somehow kept out on the line by Mavropanos and the ball is cleared before it can be turned in at the back post.

Brilliant move from Arsenal ends with Calafiori fizzing one just wide.

Trossard has a header saved, then he heads another against the post when the ball comes back to him. So close to an opener.

Almost ready to go!

PSG it is then. Deserved win, kept Bayern at arm's length pretty comfortably until Kane's late goal.

Went to bed, thinking about the football. Woke up about five times through the night, thinking about the football. Got up this morning, thinking about the football. It's just all consuming. This season, it's going to be the end of all of us I swear 😂

Mikel Arteta says both Kai Havertz and Martin Odegaard are in the squad for tomorrow's game.

Per Mertesacker will be brought out onto the pitch about 15 minutes before kick-off today to say his final goodbye to Arsenal fans before leaving the club at the end of the season. Per will be interviewed on the pitch at about 5.15pm. Great chance to show the BFG the appreciation he deserves 👏👏

No attempt to play the ball, Gyokeres in the middle of the 18 yard box with just the keeper to beat, am I the only one thinking that was a strong case for a red? Anyway, that’s a really good half from Arsenal and a great way to end it. They’ve done a fine job of taking the sting out of Atletico.

Well, that's not the front three I was hoping to see in a Champions League semi-final I have to say.

That was stressful, anxious, tense. All of the above and much more. But it was a win, a big one. And the crowd was great. Tense? Yes. On the edge? Definitely. But they never turned. Big effort, from everyone involved. Game one, done. Four to go.

F/T: 2-1 City Haaland's second half goal wins it. Arsenal left to rue missed second half chances. A win at Burnley in midweek will send City top of the Premier League.

Havertz heads a golden chance over.

Eze and Mosquera off for Trossard and White.

Gabriel hits the post.

Donnarumma's quick throw caught Arsenal out. O'Reilly got away and after that Arsenal always looked stretch. The ball eventually drops for Haaland in the box and he finishes.

2-1 Haaland

Massive save from Donnarumma to deny Havertz after a quick Arsenal break. Now Eze hits the inside of the post.

Madueke off.

Martinelli coming on.

H/T: 1-1 Good game, very open. Neither side making it easy for themselves playing out from the back. Cherki with a moment of brilliance to open the scoring, Havertz's persistence levelling things up straight away.

Two great blocks at either end. The first from Khusanov as Havertz threatened, the second from Hincapie to deny Semenyo

Mosquera booked. That could be an issue up against Doku.

Havertz closes down Donnarumma and deflects his attempted clearance into the net. Big boost for Arsenal, basically straight from the kick-off after Cherki had jinked his way past Gabriel and Rice's challenges to give City the lead.

HAVERTZ!!!! 1-1

1-0 Cherki

Mosquera heads wide from Rice's corner.

City hit the post.

We're underway.
