Play by play
- 95'
That's it. Chelsea go back to the top of the table with an accomplished performance. Arsenal did ok in patches but failed for a cutting edge, or some conviction. They had two excellent chances which they spurned, Chelsea had the same but found the net twice. Thanks for your company.
- 94'
Time is nearly up, and time is out for Arsenal's title tilt. It's more about holding on to a top four place for them now I would argue.
- 93'
Cole nudges Rosicky out the way as he tried to reach a pass. That should have been an Arsenal free kick on the edge of the box.
- 92'
Oh dear Bendtner. Awful football. Inside the area, trying to beat his man, trips over the ball and Carvalho comes away with it.
- 91'
Drogba even gets a standing ovation from Matt Damon.
- 91'
Drogba comes off to a good ovation, Kalou comes on.
- 90'
Eboue cross, Fabregas meets it but heads wide of the far post. Five minutes added...
- 89'
Bendtner looks off the pace as he wastes possession under no pressure at all.
- 88'
Fabregas throws his hand up in disgust as Rosicky can't return his pass.
- 87'
Vermaelen heads forward amid cries of "shoooot" in the office, largely for fantasy league reasons, but he drags it wide.
- 86'
Now Zhirkov gets a yellow. Mike Dean seems to have got into the bookings of late.
- 86'
Joe Cole is coming on for Anelka.
- 85'
Wenger is standing in Ancelotti's technical area and giving someone some stick about summat.
- 84'
Lampard squres the free kick to Anelka but it was travelling and he couldn't keep it down.
- 83'
Fabregas gets a booking now after hauling down Drogba.
- 82'
Drogba hits the bar! ALmunia doesn't even move and the free kick smashes back off the crossbar.
- 81'
Lampard is caught late by Song and gets a yellow card. Chelsea free kick 25 yards out.
- 80'
Chelsea change: Zhirkov on for Ballack.
- 79'
That's better as Nasri knocks down to Bendtner but Cech gets there first and turns it behind.
- 78'
Things are becoming very congested in the fial third as Arsenal push up. They don't look like getting through the sheer weight of Chelsea numbers though.
- 77'
Nasri crosses towards Arshavin but Terry clears, then EBoue gets to the byline but can't get a decent cross off and JT clears again. Arsenal getting desperate.
- 76'
Bendtner has slotted right in after another pitiful effort on goal. He went to his left inside the area and dribbled a shot at Cech.
- 75'
Ballack meets Malouda's corner but it flies over the bar.
- 74'
Cole crosses, Nasri blocks and Chelsea have a corner.
- 73'
Two more Arsenal changes: Diaby and Sagna go off, Rosicky and Eboue come on.
