5 min Portsmouth have started this game superbly. From kick-off, they started their intentions, looking to get the ball forward, and there’s been a focused fury about their work so far.
Noise! Blair does well down the left, picking a clever square-pass to Chaplin with Arsenal expecting a cross. Using the direction of the ball, he sweeps a shot goalwards, Kepa parries but can’t get it out of the danger-zone, and Bishop opens his body to punch a finish high into the net! This competition, oh my complete and utter absolute days.
1 min Long ball, knockdown, cross into the box; Pompey look to put Arsenal under pressure immediately, and I’d not be surprised if they look to put a big man on Lewis-Skelly to create a back-post mismatch. For now, though, he and Arsenal get the ball away.
1 min Away we go!
