Arsenal vs FC Porto

1. 93'

   Full time. And a deserved win for the Gunners.

2. 93'

   Walcott loses the ball badly. Eboue does well to get back and defend. Lehmann collects the corner, and the whistle is blown.

3. 92'

   Alex Song is ready to come on for Gallas. Postiga, who has been ineffectual tonight, is caught offside again.

4. 91'

   Walcott and Henry get their wires crossed. Gallas down injured, it looks like a hamstring which would really take the gloss off the night.

5. 90'

   3 mins to go.

6. 90'

   Walcott and Eboue do well. Eboue looks very tired, but he's played superbly. Henry picks it up and wins a throw, Arsenal just playing down the clock.

7. 89'

   Fabreags and Ljungburg do well, cross comes in and again no-one is there. Peter Crouch would have scored 10 tonight if he'd been playing for Arsenal.

8. 88'

   Too late now for Porto, they look out of ideas.

9. 87'

   Another good tackle gets punished. This ref hasn't had a good game and books Gilberto.

10. 86'

    Ljungburg breaks down the left. Henry and Rosicky help him out and Arsenal force a corner.

11. 85'

    Big cheer as Walcott gets his first touch. But he loses the ball and Porto play it around. Eboue is back on the field.

12. 85'

    Theo Walcott comes on for Hleb.

13. 84'

    Terrible shot from Bruno Alves. Well wide.

14. 84'

    Eboue being stretchered off, it looks like cramp, so Wenger will hope it's not too serious.

15. 83'

    Theo Walcott looks ready to come on. Eboue is down injured though, he's had a great game.

16. 83'

    The excellent Eboue gives it to Ljungburg in the box, he should have hit it with his left foot, but shifts it right and it's blocked.

17. 82'

    The new stadium is nearly full, and the crowd will be happy with Arsenal's performance tonight.

18. 81'

    Henry wins the corner. The defenders are staying back though, Rosicky lines up a shot, but hits it wide.

19. 80'

    Quaresma does very well, cuts inside Eboue and shoots. Lehmann spills the shot and reclaims it just before it crosses the line.

20. 79'

    Arsenal have eased off, but still look capable of scoring again. Bosingwa certainly unhappy at having to deal with Henry and Ljungburg.

21. 78'

    Rosicky called up for a foul, he's got to be careful. Toure again repels the cross by Porto. Henry slid in, he cuts it back for Fabregas, whose shot is straight at the keeper.

22. 77'

    Ljungburg looks full of running. Arsenal knock it around patiently. Fabregas dispossessed by Pepe.

23. 76'

    Ljungburg and Henry knock it around slowly on the left. Arsenal lose out to Gonzalez and Eboue is forced to make a tackle in defence.

24. 75'

    Porto running out of time and belief...

25. 74'

    Henry beats Bosingwa on the left, swings in a cross, but well cleared from the penalty spot by Porto.
