A brilliant, if spicy, first 45 minutes. Harry Kane’s penalty gives Spurs the lead at the interval, after Eric Dier equalised at the Emirates. Arsenal dominated the first 20 minutes until Spurs awoke. Dier celebrated by hushing Arsenal supporters and substitutes, warming-up in close proximity. Guendouzi was particularly enraged, Dier booked. Aubameyang gave Unai Emery’s side a deserved lead before Dier nodded in Eriksen’s free-kick and then Son fell under the challenge of Rob Holding, leading Mike Dean to point to the spot. That decision infuriated Kolasinac, who had a little contretemps with Ben Davies. Kane did the rest.
45+2 min: Lloris claws Mustafi’s looping header away from goal! Xhaka whips in the corner, the Arsenal defender connects with it and eventually it bounces off the bar.
