Mansfield 1-1 Arsenal
‘59: It goes behind for a corner, but Calafiori nods Madueke’s delivery over the bar. He looks to complain that it took a deflection, but nothing doing.
Reed goes for a low, long-range effort rather than squaring to Akins but it doesn’t trouble Kepa too much, and Reed holds out an apologetic hand to his teammate.

SAVE! Mansfield 1-1 Arsenal
‘54: Brilliant save by Roberts, it’s Dowman again who just floats into the box, takes a left-footed strike – but Roberts flings out his arm to palm it away!

Mansfield 1-1 Arsenal
‘53: Salmon was at fault there, giving the ball to Evans under zero pressure, and that’s a bad moment for the 16-year-old.
But Mosquera really should have dealt with that a lot better, leaving the super-sub acres of room in the box.

Mansfield 1-1 Arsenal
Will Evans scored against Manchester United in the FA Cup for Newport. Now he has struck against Arsenal. Clearly the man for such occasions.

GOAL! Mansfield 1-1 Arsenal
Mansfield counter, Evans – off the bench – powers down into the box, gets around Mosquera, takes a touch, and fires a low strike past Kepa!
Bedlam in the One Call Stadium!

Mansfield 0-1 Arsenal
‘49: The visitors, in a more recognisable shape, are on top so far. They break in numbers and at speed and have a couple of set-piece opportunities.
Corner for Arsenal… Madueke curls it toward Martinelli at the near post but Blake-Tracy hooks it clear!

SECOND HALF: Mansfield 0-1 Arsenal
On we go with the second half. Will Evans is on for Tyler Roberts, who had some good chances in that first 45.

Mansfield 0-1 Arsenal
A classy goal separates these sides but, for much of the first half, Mansfield were bridging a gap of 59 league places.

HALF-TIME: Mansfield 0-1 Arsenal
A not so convincing half from Arsenal but after a formation reshuffle – indicative that Arteta knows he got it wrong – the Gunners looked more convincing.
Noni Madueke’s excellent 41st-minute strike is the difference.

CLOSE! Mansfield 0-1 Arsenal
‘45+2: 37-year-old Akins latches onto a McLaughlin ball into the box but gets his header all wrong, firing over the bar!
