Arsenal vs Manchester United

1. 90'

   A great game that went to show that these two sides are still the best in the country - regardless of what one corner of South West London might say. Blistering opening half with Arsenal in the driving seat. Amazing strike from Henry to open the scoring but, as has happened before this season, the home side didn't finish the game off when they had the chance. Inviting United on to them was a mistake that ultimately cost them 2 points but not the record for an unbeaten start to the season.

2. 90'

   It's the last action of the game and this titanic battle ends with honours even. 1-1 the final score

3. 90'

   Bergkamp free kick from deep on the left is flighted into a crowded box and cleared by Neville.

4. 90'

   Chance for Arsenal to regain the lead. Interchange of passes works the ball into the box with Gilberto. Henry is wanted it laid across for the tap in but Gilberto goes for goal. Carroll saves but the ball bounces up for Henry to head just wide. The Frenchman is furious with his team mate for not playing him in

5. 89'

   Three minutes of added time

6. 88'

   Van Nistlerooy lays right to Giggs who just chips it back to the Dutchman but Lehmann is right behind the header

7. 87'

   Tense last few minutes now and definitely United with the initiative

8. 86'

   United have been threatening a goal for the last ten minutes or so and Arsenal's policy of defending the lead seems to have back fired

9. 85'

   Great quick passing from United sees Scholes play in Solskjaer on the right. His cross across the six yard line is aimed for van Nistlerooy but runs past everyone to Saha who has most of the goal to aim for. No mistake from the substitute. 1-1 and Arsenal pay for sitting back

10. 84'

    Another substitution for Arsenal. Pires goes off to a standing ovation and Dennis Bergkamp comes on to an almighty roar

11. 83'

    With Ljungberg off and three centre backs, Arsenal are looking to shut up shop for the 1-0. A dangerous game with United enjoying a great deal of possession in the closing stages

12. 82'

    Solskjaer cracks in a decent looking shot from the left corner of the Arsenal box. Brown makes contact with his head in the six yard box but the power and speed mean he can't do anything with it

13. 81'

    Clear statement of intent from Arsenal as Ljungberg is replaced by Pascal Cygan

14. 80'

    Delightful reverse pass from Giggs gets Solskjaer in behind the Arsenal back line but in an offside position

15. 79'

    Giggs corner is headed back across goal by a diving Brown but such is the number of bodies there it does not get very far and an Arsenal foot is first to it

16. 78'

    Ljungberg breaks into a lot of space in the United half. Manages to get a shot away but it rather dribbles through to a grateful Carroll

17. 77'

    A sense of tension in the crowd as Arsenal are letting United play a lot of football and only have that single goal lead

18. 76'

    Solskjaer throws in a deep cross from the right but it is too close to Lehmann and he catches it under no pressure at all

19. 75'

    Substitution for Arsenal as Reyes makes way for Gilberto Silva

20. 74'

    Arsenal conceding possession to United in the middle of the pitch but not letting them into the final third at all

21. 73'

    A disjointed period of play as possession and throw ins are traded

22. 72'

    Saha gets past Clichy before the Arsenal man trips him. Clichy's name goes in the referee's notebook

23. 71'

    Solskjaer receives a frosty reception from the home fans who remember his involvement with Campbell's sending off in the same fixture last year

24. 70'

    Second substitution for United sees Ole Gunnar Solskjaer replace the ineffectual Fletcher

25. 69'

    Snap shot from Henry from similar range to the goal this time hits Brown and doesn't trouble the United keeper
