Chelsea vs Arsenal live updates as the Blues will be looking to keep up their top-four charge against a Gunners side enduring a miserable Premier League campaign
‘That was woeful’: Commentator claims one Arsenal star dived for a penalty last night
Thomas Partey had a cracking game for Arsenal last night.
The Gunners produced a stellar defensive performance in winning 1-0 away to in-form Chelsea, who are in the Champions League final.
And so much of the victory was down to Partey’s brilliant midfield display.
The former Atletico Madrid powerhouse recovered the ball well and shielded his four team-mates in defence very efficiently and consistently.
Could Liverpool make Jadon Sancho statement signing this summer?

The last time Liverpool met Southampton they were top of the table, now they are seventh – but Ralph Hasenhuttl insists it is “only a matter of time” before a comeback.
The Reds suffered a 1-0 loss at St Mary’s in January, courtesy of Danny Ings‘ second-minute strike, which gave Man City a big advantage in the title race.
Pep Guardiola’s side were level on points but had played a game fewer, and since then their fortunes have diverged, with Liverpool relinquishing their title in a dramatic slide.
Defeat to Southampton was only the Reds’ second of the Premier League campaign, but it came in a run of 14 games that heralded seven further losses and just three victories.
