Referee Pawson gives West Ham a free kick with one minute to play.
Game over?
West Ham can’t clear the ball. It falls to Ben White who fires through a melee of players, but the defender fires wide.
Arsenal are applying all the pressure now.
Sterling’s cross is met by Gabriel but West Ham get bodies in front of the ball.
Man of the match Wan-Bissaka clears the danger.
We’ll have eight more minutes!
A really poor miss for Leandro Trossard, who picks up the ball on the edge of the box but blasts it over the bar.
Alvarez is replaced by Carlos Soler.
Ben White comes on for William Saliba.
So, so poor from Arsenal.
Sterling’s free kick hits the wall, the ricochet falls to Odegaard who plays it to Gabriel, but the defender scoops the ball over the bar, much to the home fans frustration.
Arsenal have struggled to create anything this half and now have to do it with ten men.
West Ham close to back-to-back Emirates wins.
Nwaneri is taken off, and replaced by Raheem Sterling.
Goalscorer Bowen is off, he’s replaced by Evan Ferguson.
Edson Alvarez is booked.
Referee Craig Pawson goes to the VAR monitor and after a quick check, he decides to send off Lewis-Skelly.
Arsenal down to ten men!
Very lucky for Lewis-Skelly.
His slip allows Kudus through and the youngster brings him down. There was no one else back to defend…
A counterattack was on for Arsenal, but Trossard’s poor cross field pass is headed back to Areola by Max Kilman.
And just like that Todibo is taken off. Smart decision by Potter.
Konstantinos Mavropanos comes on in his place.
Todibo is cautioned for punching the ball out of Merino’s hands to stop a quick Arsenal throw-in.
Aaron Wan-Bissaka has been by far the best player on the pitch today.
As I say this he catches Trossard on the edge of the West Ham box for an Arsenal free kick.
Declan Rice and Riccardo Calafiori are off for Lewis-Skelly and Zinchenko.
West Ham fans explode with jeers as their former captain walks off the pitch.
That was close!
Another stunning ball into Bowen but the England international just misses the ball.
