The leader in the Premier League against the number 15 from League One, the English third division. On paper it looks like an odd boxing match and in the first half that was mainly seen in possession, not in chances.
Arsenal were entitled to a penalty kick when Albert Sambi Lokonga aimed a ball at a defender’s arm in the penalty area, but the ball did not hit the spot.
Arsenal came under steam in the second half. Fabio Vieira first served Mohamed Elneny for the opening goal and not much later put Eddie Nketiah on his way to make it 0-2.
Nketiah completely crossed the line: 0-3. In the next round, Arsenal will face their big rival in the league: Manchester City.
