Zurkowski drills in a low shot from distance that Leno smothers. That's it for the game. ARSENAL WIN! An impressive display for Nketiah, who is the player of Arsenal's pre-season so far. As promising as he is, the concerns will be over a defence that still is not able to do the minimum.
Xhaka gets himself a booking for a cynical challenge.
GOAL! Arsenal 3-0 Fiorentina. Willock scores - Slipped in on the edge of the box, he kills the ball, and blasts a shot over the 'keeper and into the roof of the net.
Martinelli sprints towards goal, and with the goal looming, he fails to set himself with the perfect touches, and curs a shot just wide of the 'keeper.
Simeone's cross from the right is low and put behind for a corner. Nothing comes from it.
With five minutes left, the biggest struggle is to keep track of all the subs.
Hristov is on for Fiorentina.
Another round of subs: Mustafi, Thompson, Xhaka, Ozil, Maitland-Niles, Martinelli
Time for a water break.
Willock is clumped as he strides forward on goal, 35 yards out, and he appears to have hit the turf a little roughly.
Leno claims a high ball under relatively little pressure.
Just over 20 minutes to go, so expect the game to dissolve into countless substitutions. Eysseric, Simeone, Baez, Hancko, and Milenkovic all come on.
Here's how Arsenal celebrated online.
And another.
An earlier sub.
GOAL! Arsenal 2-0 Fiorentna. Nketiah scores - A cross from Mkhitaryan comes into Lacazette, who slips a pass inside for Nketiah, and he sweeps his finish back in the direction it came.
Mkhitaryan is brought on, and then booked for a late challenge in midfield.
Another water break and a chance to bring some changes.
Lacazette clips the free kick - just outside the box - just over the bar and the wall with what would have been an extremely difficult goal, but it's not to be.
Terracciano punches the ball out - but he's about three yards out. That's a booking for him, and a dreadful bit of play. Yellow card.
