Eddie Nketiah had another couple of opportunities for the captain for the night hasn’t really trouble Neto in the Bournemouth goal.

Dominic Solanke came closest for the Cherries. He had a shot blocked just after the opening goal.

But his best chance came after a high press and when receiving the ball inside the area, he sent Lewis-Skelly with a sublime turn before smashing at goal, only to see it smashing the bar and bouncing away.

Hein in the Arsenal goal getting a slight touch to that in what turned out to be a stunning save.

Chances at both ends though and played at a real pace.
