HALF-TIME – Palace 0-1 Arsenal
The corner comes to nothing and Anthony Taylor blows his whistle for half-time.
Martinelli opened the scoring, heading home from close range after a glaring miss earlier in the half. The Gunners continued to threaten, looking very dangerous in the final third.
However, a couple of Ramsdale mistakes have encouraged Palace who look to be growing into this one. New boy Doucoure nearly levelled the scores but for a brilliant save from the Arsenal keeper who’s had a mixed evening.
A thoroughly entertaining first 45 minutes.
