Saka, from the right, made a quick entry in the final third. He gave it to Odegaard, who tried to find someone on the left, but his cross was deflected towards the right and Lewis-Skelly could not win the ball back for them. 

Arsenal are now finding it hard to go through the middle. Since Rice is not able to play as a No. 8, they are finding it tough to get the momentum going. 25 mins to go! 

Hakimi was nearly a second way to make an effort from close range. But, Saliba came running from behind to make the challenge. 

Big, big save from Donnarumma! 

Trossard with a left-footed shot from the left of the box. He also went for the far post after Rice played a swift ball to him. But, Donnarumma was just better to make the save, diving to his left.

What a save from Donnarumma! 

Lewis-Skelly found Gabriel Martinelli with a great ball. But Gabriel Martinelli could not find the right spot to beat Donnarumma. 

Another foul from PSG and they are struggling to control the game now. 

Yellow card for Hakimi. This time, he does not get away with this. No attempt to play the ball, and he gets the yellow. 

Yellow card for Saka for a foul on Mendes on the byline. Saka looks frustrated, as he appealed for a yellow card for Mendes and got the yellow card himself.  

Arsenal are looking great now. But Trossard's effort went straight to Donnarumma

First big chance of the game for Arsenal. Saka, who had switched sides, chipped in a ball from the left. 

But, even a full-stretched Gabriel Martinelli could not reach the ball.

Saka tries to do a Messi there as he made a quick entry from the right and then went for a left-footed shot. It goes straight to Donnarumma.

Arsenal ask for a penalty as Merino is brought down by Neves inside the box. 

Neves got to the ball, and it won't be a penalty.

Kvaratskhelia goes deep inside the box from the left. Timber deflected his left-footed effort. 

It could have gone anywhere else. But, finally, Raya made a good save. 

We all knew that Ruiz vs Rice would be a battle to watch out for. Till now, Ruiz has won the battle for sure. 

The free-kick resulted in Kiwior heading the ball towards the target. But it went straight to Donnarumma

This could have been a yellow. Timber fouls Kvaratskhelia. He is getting a few words from the referee. 

Kvaratskhelia tried to dribble through the defenders and went down inside the box. The referee was in a good position to take a look at the incident. 

He straightaway cancelled the call. 

Hakimi clipped the ball in the air for Marquinhos to go for the header. But the ball did not have enough pace for Marquinhos to Raya. 

Easy save at the end for the Arsenal goalkeeper.

Dembele tried to do a Ronaldinho there. But, his final left-footed attempt was not good enough to beat Raya. 

Trossard gets the yellow card for a foul on Hakimi, who was making a good run in a counterattack.

Marquinhos, the PSG captain, does well in stopping Martinelli at the back and allowing Arsenal a corner. 

He wants more noise from the visiting PSG fans.

Luis Enrique can’t have wished for much more. A swashbuckling attacking display that included four goals and a well-deserved clean sheet.

After a league phase campaign fraught with jeopardy last time round, Paris start their quest for a second consecutive Champions League crown in the most consummate of ways.

As for Atalanta, they toiled and stuck to their task, but will now focus on picking up their first points against Club Brugge in two weeks time.

After something of a shaky start, Ajax managed to find their way back into the game. 

Ironically, they had the best chance of taking the lead – Yann Sommer saving expertly from Mika Godts – seconds before Marcus Thuram headed the visitors in front at the other end.

John Heitinga’s men will now have to commit more men forward in search of an equaliser, which could play into Inter’s hands.

Against Atletico Madrid, Andrew Robertson and Mohamed Salah have found the net for Liverpool within first 6 minutes of the match.

What a contest we have witnessed! Both teams gave everything, competing all the way. Slavia earned a two-goal advantage thanks to a pair of strikes from Youssoupha Mbodji on his full debut, but Bodø/Glimt displayed the character they so often showed during last season's run to the Europa League semi-finals thanks to substitutes Sondre Brunstad Fet and Daniel Bassi. A breathtaking evening, with both clubs showing why they play at this level.

A pair of penalties from Kylian Mbappé helped Real Madrid turn a deficit into victory in Xabi Alonso's first Champions League game at the helm. 

After withstanding early pressure from the hosts, Marseille struck first through Timothy Weah's emphatic finish, but Alonso's side were quickly level when Mbappé converted from the spot following a foul by Geoffrey Kondogbia on Rodrygo.

Although Madrid had Dani Carvajal sent off in the 72nd minute, Mbappé struck again with nine minutes left after Facundo Medina was penalised for handball.

Borussia Dortmund and Juventus shared the spoils after an eight-goal thriller in Turin that equalled the record for the highest-scoring Champions League draw.

Khéphren Thuram and Loïs Openda both went close for the hosts in the first half, before Karim Adeyemi’s 52nd-minute finish sparked the encounter into life.

Kenan Yıldız, Felix Nmecha and Dušan Vlahović all scored in a four-minute flurry before Yan Couto's powerful finish made it 3-2 to Dortmund.

The visitors looked to have sealed victory through Ramy Bensebaini's 85th-minute penalty, but Juventus rescued a draw in added time thanks to Dušan Vlahović's finish and a Lloyd Kelly header.

Qarabağ claim a historic win here in Lisbon – and few can argue with the result. Benfica were 2-0 up after 16 minutes, but after Leandro Andrade’s goal, the Azerbaijan champions grew in confidence and made the most of their momentum to level and ultimately win it in the closing stages. Welcome back, Champions League!

Substitutes Gabriel Martinelli and Leandro Trossard strike to give Arsenal a winning start in a tight contest in Bilbao, where Athletic Club performed admirably on their much-anticipated return to the competition. 

Arsenal have failed to score in Spain in the first half. 

Mikel Arteta's men looked good but not sharp enough. Meantime Athletic have done well to defend and attack on the chances they got. 

Important 45 minutes to come.

Anouar Ait El Hadj extends the lead for Union SG. The newcomers are on fire!

Olise should score from there. 

Kane, with a cutback from the byline, had found Olise with nearly an empty goal to aim at. 

But, he looked a bit casual with the finish there, and Sanchez, with a big dive, made the save.

Huge chance for Harry Kane. 

Laimer made a good run in the middle and then found Kane. 

Kane nearly went one-on-one against Sanchez, but could not beat him from a tight angle from left of the box.

However, Diaz's right-footed shot went straight to the Chelsea goalkeeper.

Neuer, who is now the oldest Bayern Munich player to play in the Champions League, makes an easy save as Reece James' timid shot went straight to him. 

Although we thought he was fine, but after a run, he is limping.

It missed the target though.

From nowhere, FC Bayern Munich finds the back of the net. 

Olise had lots of space to work with, and his cross from the right was deflected inside his own goal by Chalobah.

Bayern take the lead.

A well-deserved win for Arsenal. Nottingham Forest did not do anything to score or beat them at home.

After the first goal by Zubimendi, it was all about how many Arsenal would get. 

Two goals from Zubimendi and Gyokeres, and Eze combined for another goal. 

Arsenal are at the top of the table now. 

We will see you tomorrow during the Manchester derby at 9 pm IST. Till then, take care and good night.

Declan Rice won the ball back for Arsenal at the halfway mark. He found Trossard with an accurate pass. 

Trossard made a quick entry inside the box but could not take the shot before he was brought down.

He appealed for a penalty but was not given. 

4 minutes will be added to the final minutes.

Well, it has not been a perfect start for Ange to his Nottingham Forest career. But a goal would surely make it a better one.

What a day the Spaniard is having.

From the setpiece, Rice found Trossard, and the floated service was headed inside the goal by Zubimendi. 

Arsenal 3-0 Nottingham 

Out: Madueke, Eze

In: Martinelli, Trossard

Yellow card for Williams for a foul on Madueke. 

Nottingham have not been able to guard the left side as Eze makes another swift entry inside the box. However, his cross was a bit long for Madueke to recieve. 

Out: Sangare, Gibbs-White

In: Yates, MacTee

Madueke found Timber with a classy, tricky pass and Timber's cross nearly found Rice at the center of the goal for the third of the night. 

Swinging cross from Bakwa and it fell in dangerously for Arsenal inside the box. But the defender was able to head it away from danger. 

In: Lewis-Skelly, Rice

Out: Calafiori, Gyokeres

Arsenal fans are singing that Ange will be sacked in the morning after today's game.

Yellow card for Calafiori for a foul.

Dilane Bakwa replaces Chris Wood.

Kalimuendo replaces Hudson-Odoi.

He made all the moves on the left and then passed it across right to Madueke and then switched sides before hitting the post with a rocket shot from close range. 

Eze found Merino with a brilliant touch. Then Merino's cross found Nwaneri, whose side volley went over the goal. 

Arsenal and Mikel Arteta finally have themselves a bagsman.

Big chance for Wood, who could not convert it into a goal after he hit the crossbar unintentionally.

Within the first 50 seconds of the restart. 

Big mistake from Savona, and he missed the long ball. Eze made sure he picked up the ball and served it on a platter for Gyokeres to tap in for the second goal on the afternoon. 

Arsenal 2-0 NFO. 

No further changes from either team. 

The players are out, and we will soon have the second half started. 

A well-deserved 1-0 lead for Arsenal. 

Nottingham Forest did not have much to write about, and they will have to do a lot more to beat the defence of Arsenal. 

It was Martin Zubimendi's thunder strike that gave Arsenal the lead. 

Eze was able to get in a cross from the left byline through the legs of the defenders. 

But, Gyokeres could not get a full touch to the cross from Eze. 

Anderson found Wood at the edge of the box and then his touch went straight to Gibbs-White, who could not control his shot and missed the target. 

7 minutes have been added as injury time.

After conceding the goal, Forest have tried to go up with Anderson and Gibbs-White, looking to enter the final third. 

They have been silent for a few minutes now. Ange's men need to push the play up a bit more and win the ball back. 

🚨 ZUBIMENDI WITH A ROCKET!

Right back Savona has replaced Murillo. 

Another volley from the Spaniard. But this time it goes over the goal. 

I think he will have to be replaced now. He is playing with his body now till Ange makes a replacement. 

Martin Zubimendi, WOW! 😱

He has his first Premier League goal in some style, hitting a volley on the edge of the box past Matz Sels 🚀

— Premier League (@premierleague) September 13, 2025

Nooooo, you can not do that. 

From the corner, Madueke's service was headed away, but it fell perfectly for Zubimendi to go for a rocket volley from outside the box.

He scores his 11th goal. 

Arsenal take the lead. 

Arsenal 1-0 Nottingham Forest. 

In every corner, Sels has been able to come out and get his hand to the ball. This time, after he ounched the ball away, Murillo made the block for another corner. 

Madueke's corner nearly helped Timber head it for the first goal of the evening. But it went for another corner. 

Nwaneri found Zubimendi, and his pass across the turf found Eze at the corner of the box.

However, after a heavy first touch, Eze could not get the shot in the first place. His attempt then was blocked. 

Nweneri's left-footed volley from outside the box was blocked by a wall of defenders. 

Again on the right, he was able to go past Morato easily and send a cross towards the goal. 

So unfortunate for Arsenal. Nwaneri replaces Odegaard in the middle. 

Looks like the Arsenal captain will have to be subbed off here. The shoulder needs more treatment.

The defender allowed the long ball to bounce, and Gyokeres was quick to latch onto it and make a quick pass across the turf to Eze, whose shot was blocked and then saved by Sels. 

Ndoye's cross is saved by Raya, who had to dive to his right to grab the ball.

Odegaard is down with a shoulder injury. He is getting some medical attention. Not to forget he came back from injury only a few weeks back. 

Odegaard's flighted free-kick found Merino inside the box. However, his right-footed attempt from close range was saved by Sels. 

Wood fouls Gabriel, and it is an early free-kick for Arsenal. It is 30 yards away from the goal. 

Odeggard from the centre of the box looked for a partner inside the box. However, his toe touch was blocked by Williams. 

After a tussle with Calafiori, the youngster is down. 

From the back, they have tried to build up, and Nottingham have found it hard to get the ball back. 

Calafiori, Mosquera, Gabriel and Timber are guarding their back. 

Nottingham Forest kicks things off in their away jersey of white and blue. Arsenal are in their red and white.

Ange gives a big hug to Arteta. They are obviously very well known to each other during their North London Derbies. 

The players are coming out of the tunnle and we are ready to kick-off.

Liverpool get things going in the second half. 

I will have to admit Arsenal have done well in the first half. They attacked more and looked the better side. 

Liverpool also looked threatening but without any bite.

Will we see any goals after the break?
