Leeds United vs Arsenal

<b>FULL TIME</b> Arsenal secure what is, in the end, a comfortable win. Goals from Nasri, Sagna and Van Persie ensure that Johnson's stunner is nothing but a consolation for Leeds.

Leeds have tried to apply pressure on the Arsenal defence, but they have held firm. It's not to be for the Whites...

<b>FOUR MINUTES ADDED TIME</b>

The corner is scrambled clear for a throw, Schmeichel retreats!

Lloyd Sam and Max Gradel work a corner between them, Schmeichel is coming forward...

Song with a block on Somma, on last chance maybe for Leeds?

Leeds are certainly trying, but they have struggled to trouble the Arsenal backline all game.

A late free kick for Leeds, can they find a second goal?

Can Lloyd Sam have any impact in the closing stages? Sanchez Watt struggled to make one against his parent club.

That third goal was far too easy for Arsenal, Leeds defence has let them down at points this evening.

It looks like it's all over for Leeds now, surely they can't find two goals?

A deep cross from the right finds the Dutchman in acres of space at the far post. He nods the ball powerfully past Schmeichel, who had no chance.

Leigh Bromby launches a long throw into the Arsenal box, but it's headed behind.

Cesc Fabregas within a whisker of scoring with his first touch! A 30-yard free kick is bent narrowly wide by the Spaniard.

A huge blow for Leeds as Arshavin trudges off. His finishing has really kept the home team in the game, along with his carefree, laid-back attitude. Basically, he was awful.
