Good evening. I'll level with you: Arsenal's Europa League campaign has, to date, featured some of the very worst football ever to have been played, and it's hard to see that changing today. Still, you never know.

Thanks for your company - have a good night.

So Ostersunds paid the price for playing so poorly in the opening half-hour, deservedly two goals down. They improved thereafter, but the tie was over by then and the only question is how many more Arsenal score in the return.

Full-time: Ostersunds 0-3 Arsenal

Ospina saves the penalty! Pettersen could not have telegraphed this more if he'd literally sent a telegraph, opening his body before tapping to Ospina's right - he slowly dives to see the kick away.

PENALTY OSTERSUNDS! Ghoddos slips a lovely ball down the side of Bellerin for Sema, and Bellerin lunges in!

There shall be two added minutes.

Time is elapsing.

Elneny gives the ball away to Hopcutt, who tries one from 25 yards; it sails over the bar.

How do you describe nothing?

There's going to be another 90 minutes of this.

The very talented Reiss Nelson replaces Mkhitaryan.

Nketiah replaces Welbeck.

I always found it weird that Arsenal didn't think the Europa League was their seasons's priority - they were never coming top four, and a European trophy isn't to be sneezed at. The opposition this season is much harder than what Manchester United faced last season though, and the chances are they'll have to beat a good team at some point.

Ostersunds have been much better since going 2-0 down, and Sema goes down the left then Bebes a cross miles beyond everything.

I'm not sure why Ozil is still on the pitch - Arsenal are in a right pickle if he gets injured or tired, and this tie is done.

So what's happened to Kolasinac? Very briefly, he was the bargain of the summer, there to add ballast and personality to a bunch of weaklings and now he can barely get a game...

Change for Ostersunds: Bergqvist replaces Wildgren.

Change for Arsenal: Kolasinac replaces Monreal.

Nice from Arsenal, moving the ball around the box before they fashion a shooting opportunity for Welbeck ... so he passes to Monreal. Oh, Daniel. So Monreal has a dig, which hits Mkhitaryan.
