18:45

Arsenal are back on track! (0-1, 55th)

The Gunners are close to doubling the stake. For their first offensive of the second half, the Londoners came close to scoring. Saka, Rice and White combine on the right side before finding Rice who strikes, then extends for Trossard. United defend well and concede nothing.

18:42

Arsenal less inspired! (0-1, 53rd)

Even if they lead the score, the Gunners are not safe and are no longer able to deploy any offensives. This begins to worry Odegaard who tries to remobilize his people.

18:39

United gets off to a good start (0-1, 50th)

It starts again the way it ended. The Mancunians approach Raya’s cage, but do not offer any real creation to make the Gunners bend.

18:36

Here we go again at Old Trafford (0-1)

Arsenal kick off the second half.

18:19

Half-time at Old Trafford (0-1)

Leandro Trossard and the Gunners were maximally efficient at the break. 1-0.

18:17

3 minutes of added time

There are three minutes left to equalize before heading into the locker room for United.

18:14

Diallo and Garncaho appear dangerous (0-1, 42nd)

The Ivorian’s well-felt cross strike finds the Argentinian, who has fun along the line before crossing. Raya, well placed, intervenes and clears his team well. Danger mounts on the Spaniard’s cage.

18:11

United plays far from its camp (0-1, 40th)

The Gunners concede a stupid corner after a misunderstanding between Saka and one of the teammates, but the corner kick achieves nothing.

18:08

Amad dial at home! (0-1, 37e)

Diallo gains speed and manages to infiltrate the London penalty area, but four yellow players position themselves in front of him. The Ivorian remains on the ground, but no penalty.

18:06

Rebelote for United! (0-1, 34th)

Once again, the repeated attacks from the Mancunians did not hurt and gave little trouble to the Gunners, who managed their score advantage well. But they haven’t been dangerous for a few minutes.

18:03

United se bat ! (0-1, 31e)

The Mancunians cornered the Gunners in their area, but the latter showed themselves solid to repel the attacks of Garnacho, Holdjund and McTominay. Note the good offensive presence of Diogo Dalot. But the Gunners are not letting anything go.

18:00

Arsenal puts more pressure (0-1, 27th)

Ben White was close to scoring. The Arsenal right-back was found on his right side. Thrown into the area, he tries to cross, but it turns into a shot that goes along Onana’s goal.

17:57

The Gunners take the lead!

Provisionally, Arteta’s men are leaders of the Premier League, one day from the end, but Guardiola’s Citizens still have two games to play. Arsenal only has one left after this meeting.

17:52

BUT DE TROSSARD (0-1, 20th)

Onana takes his time to clear, but the Gunners quickly return to the Mancunian camp. Casemiro takes time to align with his defense and leaves Havertz in play, on the right. The German comes forward and crosses for Trossard, who finishes quietly. What a mistake from Casemiro!

17:47

Gunners as dilettantes? (0-0, 17th)

After a conquering first few minutes, the Gunners let the Mancunians come close to their area. No consequences at the moment.

17:45

The pace drops at Old Trafford (0-0, 15th)

After a fairly crazy first few minutes, where both teams showed their presence, things calmed down here at Old Trafford. Only Dalot could have brought the Red Devils supporters to their feet, but his run with the ball was stopped and his shot, on the following action, went over.

17:40

Arsenal reacts (0-0, 8th)

Tackle from Rice, for Odegaard who controls, drives and serves Saka on the right. The winger crosses for Havertz, but his ball goes out for a corner. Gabriel misses the target on his head.

17:38

Garnacho! (0-0, 7e)

The Mancunians let the storm pass and put pressure on the Gunners. Garnacho’s shot is off target, but it is blocked. The match has already changed.

17:36

Thomas Partey not far from the correctional facility! (0-0, 5th)

The Ghanaian midfielder from Arsenal loses the ball close to his area and lets Holjund have a first scoring opportunity, but his shot ends up in the parking lot.

17:35

Saka! (0-0, 4e)

What constant pressure from Arteta’s players. Partey recovers the ball near the area, serves Odegaard, who finds Saka with a well-felt backheel. The English hits but Onana catches it well.

17:33

The Gunners are starting strong! (0-0, 2nd)

Martin Odegaard’s teammates put pressure on the Mancunians. Saka, Havertz and Saliba, from a corner, put United’s goal in danger from the start.

Manchester United still believes in Europe

With a victory in the last five matches, the Red Devils finished badly, but can still believe in Europe, at the end of the season, as little consolation for yet another failed season. They are 3 points behind Chelsea (7th) and Newcastle (6th) and the first virtual qualifier for the Europa Conference League.

17:00

Win to hope for a final thrill day

The Gunners (2nd, 83 points) have no choice – to leave the suspense at its height or at least try – to win against Manchester United (8th, 54 points) to temporarily move ahead of Manchester City in the standings before the last day , next week. But the Citizens still have two games to play, as they have just beaten Fulham (0-4) this Saturday. So, if Arteta’s men want the Premier League, 20 years later, they must not miss each other.

16:59

The Gunners XI without surprises

Arsenal : Raya -White, Saliba, Gabriel, Tomiyasu – Odegaard (c), Partey, Rice – Saka, Havertz, Trossard.

16:55
