    I may have spoken too soon. Two more bookings as Santi Cazorla clashes with Maximilian Arnold. This has been a tetchy game. Expect fireworks if these two meet in the Champions League.

    Andre Schurrle, external tests Petr Cech from distance. It's more than anger out of anything because the Wolfsburg man is off side but Cech is equal to the effort as he pushes it away to rapturous applause.

    A quick reminder of what Arsene Wenger said about Jeff Rene-Adelaide on Saturday.

    "Rene-Adelaide is something special you know. He is a great talent and when he came on you could see that - 17 years old let’s not forget that. In fact I don't remember how I played at 17 but I didn't play like that!"

    Arsenal 1-0 Wolfsburg - Theo Walcott

    It's taken 49 minutes but, believe me, it was worth the wait.

    Theo Walcott stabs home with the outside of his boot after a delightful pass by Jeff Reine-Adelaide. 

    It must have been good because Arsene Wenger is out of his seat and applauding.
