Manchester United v Arsenal LIVE: Latest Premier League result and updates as Martinelli goal ruled out by VAR

‘Ten Hag brings out the best in me’ – new Man Utd winger Antony
Follow live updates as Manchester United host Arsenal in the biggest game of the Premier League weekend. The Gunners head to Old Trafford at the top of the table and with five wins from their first five games under Mikel Arteta. However, they will face their biggest test of the season so far when they take on Erik ten Hags United, who appear to have turned the tide with three straight wins.
Thursday’s win over Leicester came as United confirmed the €100m signing of Brazilian striker Antony, who will make his debut at Old Trafford today. Arsenal, meanwhile, were frustrated chasing Douglas Luiz and suddenly looked a little weak in midfield – but Arteta was bolstered by the availability of Oleksandr Zinchenko and Martin Ödegaard. If Arsenal win, it would be only their second at Old Trafford since 2006 and would add excitement to the Emirates over a possible title challenge.

Manchester United 0-0 Arsenal
33 minutes: SENSATIONAL SAVINGS! Arsenal probe United’s box for a while before Odegaard sliced a delicious cross at the back post for Martinelli. The Brazilian heads back over De Gea but the Spaniard copes with him and makes an acrobatic save to deny Arsenal the opening goal.
Arsenal are currently playing with United. Great football played by the visitors. They only need the goal as a reward for their efforts.

Manchester United 0-0 Arsenal
31 minutes: Nice move by Arsenal as they work all the way from Ramsdale to Jesus, on to Odegaard and finally back to Martinelli. The Arsenal man sets up Dalot and smacks him before sending a low cross that requires De Gea to deflect at his near post for a corner.
The corner is played briefly and ultimately misses, but now there’s a groan of frustration at Old Trafford. It’s all Arsenal.
Manchester United just can’t get out of their own half.

Manchester United 0-0 Arsenal
28 minutes: Lokonga hits Fernandes hard. Not the smartest of challenges as he scrapes Fernandes’ calf.
Almost certainly a yellow card, but it was not recognized by the referee. Fernandes foams. When is he not?
The pace only seeps out of the game briefly.

Manchester United 0-0 Arsenal
26 minutes: Penalty for Arsenal. Saka slices inside and tries to nod the ball in front of Martinez. The Arsenal man goes down under pressure from the Argentina centre-back and there wasn’t enough contact to justify a penalty.
YELLOW CARD. United break and Martinelli is knocked down by Saliba. He becomes the first player to delve into Paul Tierney’s book.

Here is the illegal gate. Right decision?

Manchester United 0-0 Arsenal
23 minutes: First opportunity for Antony, signed from Manchester United. He takes off on the right, slicing in on the left foot and deflecting a shot high and wide.
First real look at the goal United have had since Arsenal’s disallowed strike. The guests now rule after a shaky start. United need to regain their footing.

Manchester United 0-0 Arsenal
20 minutes: Exalted by Saka. The Arsenal man gets it far right away. He sets Malacia up and then shoots down the line, hitting him for pace and pulling the ball back. Arsenal put it away but that’s a danger sign for the Manchester United left-back.
Arsenal then wins a corner. It finds Jesus at the back post, but he skews his attempt well wide.

Manchester United 0-0 Arsenal
18 minutes: Arsenal have responded well to this decision against them. They’re enjoying their first real period of possession in the game.
It’s worth noting that Martinelli’s finish was so wonderful. He was played through by Saka and only cautiously lifted it over De Gea.
It looked so easy. Too bad it doesn’t count.

ILLEGAL GOAL! Manchester United 0-0 Arsenal
15 minutes: The gate is not allowed. Paul Tierney looked at this for a long, long time and finally decided not to let it happen.
Can see it from both sides but in the end Odegaard nudged Eriksen and got his leg too.
It’s how you were United were sacked.

GATE! Manchester United 0-1 Arsenal (Martinelli, 12)
Ödegaard bends the ball away from Eriksen and pushes it around. No foul is given and Saka shoves it into Martinelli who finishes deliciously!
But wait, Paul Tierney goes to the monitor to look at the possible foul on Eriksen.
We know what that usually means…
