Arsenal v Chelsea: Premier League
BREAKING: Arsenal lead Chelsea 2-1 at the Emirates as Martin Odegaard fires the hosts back in front early in the second half, after Cole Palmer and co had earlier levelled the pulsating London derby.
Arsenal lead Chelsea 2-1, and Martin Odegaard is the reason the Emirates is bouncing.
This derby started at a sprint. Chelsea were ahead inside two minutes through Rogers, Calafiori thought he'd levelled on twelve before the goal was chalked off, and Kai Havertz finally dragged Arsenal even on twenty five. Look at the fight in this one, Cole Palmer scrapping for every ball in that first half.
Then came the moment. Five minutes into the second half, Odegaard fires Arsenal in front, and here he is, arms out, captain's goal in a London derby.
Chelsea aren't done, mind. Pedro Neto rattled the post in first half stoppage time and Palmer's just forced a save from Raya. Both benches are emptying, both managers are rolling the dice.
Forty minutes to hold on, against a Chelsea side that's already scored once in this ground today. Nobody's sitting down yet.
