Plays one across. Bit of hesitation there.
Goes for a corner. Rüdiger at the end, that was unconvincing.
Saka's corner. Courtois punches it out for another corner.
Saka will deliver again. Good ball in. Real Madrid just about deal with it.
Timber. There's the header from Reiss. Falls to the side, Martinelli.
Courtois in the way again. Double save from the Belgian.
Good movement by Bellingham. This is nice football.
Danger here. Oh, into the side netting. Mbappe thought he was in.
Still Saka. Then goes down. Free kick.
It's Reiss. What a goal!
With an absolute rocket, with a free kick. Arsenal lead 1-0.
There's Skelly. Again, did really well. Martinelli!
Good side, the rebound.
And another shot. What a save from Courtois.
An unbelievable stop.
Shot comes in again. Oh, it's cleared away again.
Saka gets away from Bellingham. Then he goes down.
Play will continue. Now it'll be brought back. Free kick to Arsenal.
Saka is down.
It's Declan Reiss again! 2-0!
What a goal from Declan Reiss!
And Arsenal lead by two goals to nil.
Miles Lewis-Skelly being told to shoot.
First-time shot, 3-0!
What a fantastic finish from Mikel Mourinho!
And Saliba, very calm into Trossard.
Free kick to Arsenal.
I'll tell you what, it's a red card.
And that rounds off Real Madrid's evening.
