WELCOME Good evening and welcome to live coverage of the Europa League match between Arsenal and Koln. Team news to follow.

And that's full-time

A good win for Arsenal at the end of a long old evening.

Stay tuned to Eurosport for full reaction.

Some liquid football there involving most of the attacking players. Wilshere and Giroud both feature with back-heels before a Sanchez chip just goes wide.

Game is very much fizzling out here.

Koln look sunk and Arsenal are cruising.

And that is that you would imagine. Kolasinac cuts the ball back and Wilshere dummies it to Walcott. His shot is blocked but Bellerin is on hand to tap home.

And here comes Nelson for Walcott.

Kolasinac sells his keeper a little short with a back-pass but Ospina is alert and gets out to clear.

Jojic takes aim from distance but it's comfortable for Ospina.

Nelson is getting ready to come on.

Wilshere slips it through to Sanchez, who is offside but his curled effort goes high and wide.

Ah the flag was up.

Interesting to see how far forward Wilshere is playing here. Practically the 10.

Osako comes on for Klunter. Aggressive change from Koln and why not.

Sanchez takes a dipping free-kick and Horn does well to hold it.

Here's Sanchez's goal.

Great run from Cordoba from his own half, beating Monreal. His low shot is tipped by Ospina and the keeper gathers the corner.

Huge roar as Wilshere gets on the ball. He beats one man and oh god Jack that's risky. He over-hits it a little and does jump in.

Arsenal fans wincing there as they know his record with injuries.

Ooooo and here comes Wilshere.

There's a terrific response from the fans who are clearly thrilled to see him back.

Massive chance for him tonight.

Well there's not a lot you can say about that. Sanchez chases down an over-hit pass from Iwobi. He jinks past two men and then curls it into the far corner.

Simply brilliant.

Second change for Koln as Zoller comes off with Risse coming on.

GREAT SAVE

Maitland-Niles goes on a mazy run beating a number of players.

But he tries to take it round Horn and the Koln keeper does excellently to smother it.

Couple of moves for Arsenal have just broken down in or around the Koln box with the away side going close as well before the attack is snuffed out.

Koln fans trying to rally their players.

Ospina comes charging out of his goal again but this time makes the clearance.

The game is much more open now and whilst Koln look dangerous on the break it feels like Arsenal are more likely to get a second.
