2. 90'

   However Arsenal were lucky to escape conceding a penalty in the second half when Daprela was fouled. But Arsenal were worthy winners in the end.

3. 90'

   The talking point of the game will be Vermaelen's red card which was harsh.

4. 90'

   And that's it. Arsenal go top of the Premier League tonight with a 2-0 win over West Ham.

5. 90'

   Fabregas has stepped in and told Eboue to cool it.

6. 90'

   Despite being 2-0 and coasting to victory, Eboue finds it necessary to have it out with the ref. He will get a yellow card if he's not careful.

7. 90'

   We are into the 3 addition minutes of injury time...

8. 90'

   Silly challenge, he's been asking for that all game. He gets his wish.

9. 90'

   Yellow card for Daprela.

10. 89'

    But Cole comes close for West Ham. McCarthy's ball to Cole pushes the Englishman slightly wide and he shoots just over with his right foot.

11. 89'

    Ecuardo is nearly put through by Fabregas but the ball clips his heel. Arsenal look very eager for a third with the game beyond West Ham now.

12. 87'

    And the substitute nearly finished West Ham off. Eboue sprints down the right and puts the ball in to Eduardo, but the Croatian can't finish.

13. 86'

    Arsenal sub: Eduardo on for Arshavin.

14. 84'

    Eboue is tormenting the hapless Daprela again. So much so that Eboue is down with cramp.

15. 83'

    And that should be enough to put Arsenal top tonight. Arsenal deserve to win this and the Arsenal fans know it. They're singing their hearts out.

16. 82'

    Fabregas waited to see Green dive right as Fabregas stroked it left. Great penalty by the Arsenal captain.

17. 82'

    2-0 TO ARSENAL!

18. 81'

    Upson handballs it. Big chance for Fabregas...

19. 81'

    PENALTY TO ARSENAL!

20. 80'

    Eduardo is warming up...

21. 80'

    Fabregas's cross is too high. Goal kick.

22. 79'

    Clichy wins a free kick off Tomkins. Clichy had the beating of him on the left and Tomkins cynically shoved him in the back. Great place for a free kick.

23. 78'

    West Ham sense they can snatch a point here.

24. 77'

    Carlton Cole hits the post! Great effort by the striker on his left foot. Rocketed his shot from 20 yards and it cannoned off the outside of the left post. That was close.

25. 76'

    Arshavin ducks and weaves after Diaby's ball to him. He gets a shot away but it was tame.
