TARGET! Wolves 0-2 Arsenal | Martin Odegaard 75′
ODEGAARD DOUBLES UP! This should be it! Martinelli wins the ball back up high, before finding Zinchenko with a superb back heel. The Brazilian is then dismissed by Sa, comes to Odegaard and fires home for the second. 1668287971 74 mins: Arsenal are content to keep the ball for now, Wolves aren’t pushing particularly high up the pitch. Zinchenko then whips a cross into the box, Collins there to clear it away. Partey makes a save as Wolves try to counter, Arsenal have it back. 1668287774 71 mins: Ramsdale is fine to carry on, seems to say it was his neck and not his head. Either way, it comes back and the game starts over. Arsenal have 20 minutes to see at Molineux. 1668287688 69 mins: Too bad for Ramsdale, Traore flies at the keeper. The ball was there to be contested, Ramsdale got there first but Traore couldn’t slow himself down and crashed over him. Arteta uses the opportunity to call up all his players. Again. 1668287556 67 mins: Traore gets to the byline and digs in the cross, Ramsdale claims comfortably enough. However, Arsenal don’t want to let Traore get too many chances to do so. Double change from Wolves – Podence and Lembikisa for Moutinho and Semedo. 1668287408 65 mins: Semedo and Traore get in the way as a dangerous cross goes into the Arsenal box. White then plays a great pass to Jesus, who is all alone. He slows things down, waits for Odegaard and then looks to slide his captain inside. Toti puts it back for a corner. 1668287233 62 mins: Well held by Ramsdale, with the bodies following. Vieira leads Arsenal’s quick counter, Gunners look dangerous. Vieira’s header falls to Martinelli, his cross is cleared by Sa. Odegaard’s header blocked, Jesus can’t get it back… chaos! 1668287127 60 mins: Traore collapsed on the edge of the box, Gabriel shown the yellow card. Nice ball from Moutinho behind, Gabriel dives in and gets nothing of the ball. Not sure why he decided to go that way – great position now for Wolves.
