Matheus Cunha goal — Arsenal 2-3 Man United
What are Arsenal doing?!?!? And what a hit from Cunha!
He picks up the ball in midfield and no one can lay a glove to him as he drives toward the arc.
Cunha curls home a gorgeous shot for 3-2.
Mikel Merino goal — Arsenal 2-2 Man United
Off a corner, and this is a scrappy goal but no one in red and white will care much.
Merino had cleverly moved Senne Lammens away from goal, then was point blank to make a desperation poke toward goal that just cleared the goal line.
Man United move
Dorgu looks to have picked up a knock and will be replaced by Benjamin Sesko in the 80th minute.
One last plug
Arteta replaces Trossard with Noni Madueke in the 76th minute.
Man United had replaced Mbeumo with Matheus Cunha a few minutes prior.
Arsenal make four subs
Viktor Gyokeres, Ben White, Eberechi Eze, and Mikel Merino are into the game for Jesus, Hincapie, Odegaard, and Zubimendi in the 58th minute.
Patrick Dorgu goal — Arsenal 1-2 Manchester United
Bruno Fernandes has a hopeful side hit pass that gets to Patrick Dorgu.
The right-sided man plucks the ball out of the air and sends it screaming past Raya.
2-1 in the 50th minute!
Dorgu thunderbolts Man United ahead of Arsenal
It's a wonderstrike from Patrick Dorgu as his shot rockets off the bottom of the crossbar and over the goal line to give Manchester United a 2-1 lead against Arsenal at the Emirates.
Halftime — Arsenal 1-1 Manchester United
Thirteen shot attempts between the two sides but just one each on target.
It’s been tight and tense at times, with Man United getting compact near goal when Arsenal’s possession gets close.
Fair for this game to be level. A little surprising that status comes with goals.
Bryan Mbeumo goal — Arsenal 1-1 Man United
Quite an error from Zubimendi, who chops William Saliba’s pass into the path of Mbeumo.
The Cameroon star drives toward David Raya, cuts to his right, and slides the ball into the goal.
Mbeumo brings Man United level after Arsenal error
An errant pass by Martin Zubimendi falls at the feet of Bryan Mbeumo, who dribbles around David Raya before tucking away Manchester United's equalizer against Arsenal at the Emirates.
Arsenal goal! Arsenal 1-0 Man United
Odegaard shoots on what may be an own goal, and Arsenal lead in the 29th minute.
Bukayo Saka chips a cross and Odegaard swings his leg at it.
The ball is headed for the feet of Jurrien Timber and Lisandro Martinez, en route to goal.
It goes in, and will probably be given to Odegaard or Timber, as the ball was goalbound. For now, it’s a Martinez own goal.
Martínez's own goal gifts Arsenal 1-0 lead
It's 1-0 to the Arsenal as an unfortunate deflection off Lisandro Martínez's leg goes into the back of the net in the first half at the Emirates.
Dangerous Arsenal free kick comes close
Declan Rice sends in a swirling, towering free kick from the right.
Martin Zubimendi gets high to nod it toward goal and it quickly spins off his mark’s hairstyle to further challenge Senne Lammens.
The Man United keeper adjusts well and slaps it over the goal. Quality save.
0-0 now into the 20th minute.
Hosts have the ball and finally make in-roads
Lisandro Martinez makes a brave block on Martin Odegaard in the 15th minute to keep things 0-0.
It’s the first shot attempt we’ve seen from either side, though Arsenal have held 67% of the ball and are showing more impetus with it.
Underway
Man United kick off, going right to left in their black kits with yellow socks.
Arsenal lineup
Raya, Timber, Saliba, Magalhaes, Hincapie, Rice, Zubimendi, Odegaard, Saka, Trossard, Jesus
Manchester United lineup
Lammens, Dalot, Maguire, Martinez, Shaw, Dorgu, Casemiro, Mainoo, Diallo, Fernandes, Mbeumo
Arsenal vs Manchester United preview — by Joe Prince-Wright
Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal host Michael Carrick’s Manchester United on Sunday, with the Gunners aiming to keep their title charge on track. But this won’t be easy.
Arsenal won 3-1 at Inter Milan on Tuesday to maintain their 100 percent record in the Champions League as they’re guaranteed a spot in the top two of the table. In the Premier League they have stuttered a little in recent weeks with two 0-0 draws in a row against Liverpool and then Nottingham Forest last weekend. But with Manchester City and Aston Villa both losing last weekend no damage was done.
Carrick got of to the perfect start as Manchester United’s interim boss as they beat Man City 2-0 at home last weekend. That was a comfortable win and United looked very dangerous on the counter and Carrick put together the perfect plan to use the talented forwards at his disposal. He will look to do something very similar against Arsenal this weekend as United are in the top four hunt and all of a sudden look solid defensively and a real danger in attack.
Arsenal team news, focus
Max Dowman remains out while Riccardo Calafiori and Piero Hincapie are both recovering from injuries. All of that means that Arteta will likely go with Timber at left back and Ben White at right back again, while up top he has some big decisions to make. After scoring twice against Inter Milan, does Gabriel Jesus start ahead of Viktor Gyokeres? The Swede scored off the bench but this could be the game where Jesus starts and Gyokeres is the impact sub. Arteta has so many options, which is a great thing, but he has to get the right players together to click on the pitch.
Manchester United team news, focus
Joshua Zirkzee and Matthijs de Ligt remain out, while Noussair Mazraoui has returned from AFCON and could feature. It’s very likely Carrick will go with the same starting lineup as the win against City last weekend and he will have had over a week to prepare his team for this tough encounter.
Arsenal vs Manchester United prediction
This feels like another draw. Arsenal are just struggling for a clinical edge against teams who sit deep and United will do that and be dangerous on the break. Arsenal 1-1 Manchester United.
