57 min : Ramsey chokes a possible sports breakaway in the egg with a good gliding gear on Diaby.
54 min : Smith-Rowe flies off to the left and slips into the box. Then he hangs up a useful center in the direction of Aubameyang, who gets a head but not a clean head. The ball slides from the top of his head and falls off.
48 min : A sporty descent on the left and a deep cross for Diaby, whose volley slammed into Jenkinson's arm, which was just a distance meter. No penalty.
47 min : Jenkinson puts a blaster on the fly about 30 meters away, followed by his training gone astray in the same half in the first half. He was further away from the target as he pushed her back toward the midline. Third lucky time?
46 min : We leave before most of the Arsenal fans have regained their seat. Thy nearly missed the breakthrough goal, but Aubameyang opened fire after a Mkhitaryan center.
Halftime: Arsenal 0-0 Sporting
It's been dull. Arsenal dominated but failed to penetrate a disciplined but limited sports team. Half could be described as a non-event if it's not for Welbeck's sad injury, which was washed away on a stretcher after suffering an injury that appeared to be a serious injury to the ankle or leg while he was landing after the head
Update
45 + 3 min : Aubameyang dives over a tasty cross from the right. Lichtsteiner can not have a firm head on it.
45 + 1 min : There will be at least three extra minutes of rest, most often because of the injury inflicted on the unfortunate Welbeck.
Update
43 min : Sporting seemed about to take possession of a ball until Mathieu realized a neglected pbad in the middle of the field. Mkhitaryan sprinted forward before being knocked down by Acuna. Freekick to Arsenal broad right.

Update
38 min : Guendouzi plays a nice ball between two defenders to free Lichtsteiner on the right. The center by Switzerland is clear.
36 min : Ramsey, very involved in the Arsenal attacks, won a corner and was then caught off guard. But his cross is poor.
33 min : The sport remains very disciplined, Arsenal continuing to work around it, but not often through them.
29 min : After several minutes of field treatment, Welbeck is transported from the field on a stretcher. The crowd sings its name and applauds loudly. Nani, Welbeck's former teammate, rushes to offer a hand to the player, who approaches it appreciably. No replay has been broadcast. It is difficult to guess what the injury would be – a damaged ankle seems more likely – but there is a clear fear that it could be quite serious.

Update
25 min : Lichtsteiner leans over a center coming from the right. Welbeck makes another good jump and sends his 10-meter header to the target. But it's a routine backup for the guardian. And Welbeck did it very badly downhill. Without a recovery, what happened is unclear, but it really hurts. Stretcher-bearers were summoned.
Update
21 min : Nani defeated two Arsenal defensemen for the old time halfway through. Lichtsteiner, angry, takes her with a scissor tackle. The referee shows the mandatory yellow card.
20 min : Freekick at Arsenal near the right-corner flag after Lichtsteiner cheats a defender in a foul. Mkhitaryan's delivery is led by Welbeck.
18 min : Guendouzi, after a double with Ramsey, fires a crucial cross from the right. Mathieu, under pressure from Welbeck, sends him to his own goal at five meters. But a defender comes back to what he pulled out of the line!

Update
17 min : Another nice Smith-Rowe tour, which starts a sprint on the right. But Acuna pursues him and recovers the ball.
16 min : Smith-Rowe shuffles his feet to make a shot at the edge of the box, but then sends his effort to the sky . This is not what I meant when I suggested that the game should take off.
Update
12 min : Mkhitaryan frees himself in the box and tries to clear a center for Welbeck, but he is diverted by a corner.
10 min : A sporting attack on the right, Gasper giving Diaby a chance to distance Jenkinson. But he was too fast for his teammates too, so there was no one to convert his center.
: 1945: Iwobi releases Welbeck from the left with a bullet that fetches. The center of Welbeck is not very good but he wins a corner. Arsenal was short and joined Jenkinson, who tries to attack him in the early corner of the game at 30 meters. He enters the stands.
7 min : Jenkinson, making a front left raid from the back, center to the penalty spot but there is no no one there to meet him.
5 min : Guendouzi is caught floundering on the ball at the edge of his own surface by two sharp players from Sporting. Sokratis manages to erase the danger. Moments later, at the other end of the line, Welbeck writes an attempt to clear the goalkeeper, returning the ball to a challenge near the flag of the corner. So, some early slowness at the back by both sides.

Update
2 min : Until now, Arsenal has monopolized possession of the ball but has failed to penetrate the Opposition, which is deployed in a good old-fashioned 4-4-2 formation.
1 min : Sportsman, wearing a kit all gray with shiny figures with a file, kick off the kick and lose the ball within five seconds.
The teams leave the tunnel and go to the field. They are greeted by the warm applause of the fans of the house and by some loud songs from the distant section. Attendance seems to be close to capacity.
Other interesting results so far: The Rangers lost 4-3 to Spartak Moscow despite their lead three times. Steve Gerrad's team did not even fire a man for once. Elsewhere, Chelsea beat Bate Borisov 1-0, Lazio beat Marseille 2-1 and Dynamo Kyiv beat Rennes 3-1.
