89'
Torreira looks for a fourth with a cushioned header from a Pepe cross, but it gently loops over the bar.
87'
P. Aubameyang has scored a goal for Arsenal! Assist by B. Saka.
ANOTHER FOR ARSENAL! 3-0! The away side are rampant now and Saka's at the heart of it again! This time he dispossesses Kamada 30 yards from goal, before slipping Aubameyang clean through on goal and he makes no mistake on this occasion, rolling it beyond a helpless Trapp.
Saka's had a dream night and it gets better with his second assist - this time a threaded through ball splitting the heart of the defence!
86'
Pepe selflessly laid that off to Saka after a superb run, and the Arsenal youngster finished it beautifully!
85'
B. Saka has scored a goal for Arsenal! Assist by N. Pépé.
GOAL FOR ARSENAL! That makes it 2-0 and that should be the win secured now for the London club. Arsenal initiate another counter-attack with Pepe finding Saka in space on the edge of the box. The Arsenal attacker rolls the ball out of his feet, before slamming a curling effort into the bottom corner from 25 yards!
83'
C. Chambers gets yellow.
Chambers is now shown a yellow card for hauling down the dangerous Kostic 30 yards out.
82'
D. Kamada gets yellow.
Kamada's booked for a dangerous studs-up challenge on Ceballos - Frankfurt look like their frustration's getting the better of them.
80'
A. Maitland-Niles enters the game and replaces S. Kolašinac.
Kolasinac makes way for Maitland-Niles as Arsenal, perhaps, seek to avoid a red card of their own.
79'
D. Kohr gets a second yellow card and is sent off.
Red card for Kohr! Frankfurt's problems have just mounted considerably! Saka makes up for his earlier miss by drawing a cynical trip from Kohr, who's given a second yellow card for stopping the breakaway. The hosts are furious with the decision, but they can have little complaint there.
Minute
Description
77'
Frankfurt might be running out of ideas slightly: Kostic wastes the latest chance by attempting a flamboyant bicycle-kick that drifts wide from the edge of the box.
75'
S. Kolašinac gets yellow.
Kolasinac dwells on a throw-in and the referee strictly books him for timewasting.

Willock is replaced by Ceballos as Arsenal search for a little more energy in midfield entering the final 20 minutes.
71'
Frankfurt win a succession of corners and begin to pin Arsenal in their own half. None of their deliveries can quite produce an opening, however.
70'
Paciencia turns David Luiz on the edge of the box and fires a left-footed shot comfortably into Martinez's arms. The sub's looked bright immediately after coming on though.
68'
A breathless passage of play begins with Willock driving into the Frankfurt box and fizzing a shot into Trapp's legs, before Kostic breaks for the home side and wins a corner after his long-range effort is deflected behind.
66'
Gonçalo Paciência enters the game and replaces B. Dost.
Dost - who's been guilty of wasting a few openings so far - is replaced by Saturday's goalscorer, Paciencia.

51'
Willock and Saka play a sharp one-two, before the former plays a searching pass forward that Hinteregger does brilliantly to poke away from Aubameyang.
48'

45' +1
HALF TIME: EINTRACHT FRANKFURT 0-1 ARSENAL
45'
Frankfurt get us underway for the second half attacking from left to right.
42'
Arsenal have really exploited Eintracht's back three when they counter. They always have four, quick attacking players available to run at the German side's defence and it's causing the hosts a lot of problems.
40'
The hosts look exposed again as Saka races away again to create a three on three, but Hasebe slides across to dispossess him and remove the danger.
39'
Saka's looked promising on Arsenal's left flank, and he converts this into a deserved assist after an incisive breakaway.
38'
J. Willock has scored a goal for Arsenal! Assist by B. Saka.
GOAL FOR ARSENAL! 1-0! Saka kickstarts an Arsenal counter-attack by jinking past Kohr, before sliding Willock in behind the Frankfurt defence. The Arsenal attacker cuts inside before hitting a curling effort that takes a wicked deflection and loops over Trapp, off the underside of the bar, and in!
36'
Saka bursts in behind Da Costa, and almost threads a pass across the face of goal to Aubamyeang but Hasebe slides in to make a great interception and cut out the danger.
34'
Despite their obvious defensive frailty, Arsenal have had four shots inside the box - three of which they should have converted. Frankfurt will be wary of their creativity on the break as this game wears on.
28'
Da Costa shimmies his way past a few challenges down the right-hand side, before delivering a cross that's blocked for a corner. From the set-piece, Hinteregger's volley slams against Mustafi and Arsenal clear.
27'
Well, Arsenal looked bright in the opening 10 minutes, but since then the hosts have dominated. Kostic has been afforded far too much room by Chambers and he's been the architect of many of these Frankfurt opportunities.
25'
Dost cuts the ball back from the byline towards Da Costa on the edge of the box, but he can only hit a weak shot straight at Martinez.
22'
Aubameyang takes on Abraham just outside the box and works enough space for a shot across the face of goal that swerves a few yards wide from 20 yards.
20'
Silva finds a little space in the box for the hosts now, but he can't quite engineer room to shoot and Arsenal clear the danger for a corner.
18'
Huge chance for Frankfurt! Kostic times his run perfectly and finds himself clean through on goal after Silva's measured pass. All he has to do is slide a pass across goal for a tap in, but he elects to slash a shot at the near post and it rifles into the side netting!
12'
M. Hinteregger gets yellow.
Hinteregger is booked for cynically tugging Smith Rowe's shirt just inside the Arsenal half.
11'
Sow drives through an inviting gap in the Arsenal midfield before laying it off to Silva. The Portuguese striker takes a touch and cracks off a shot from 25 yards that slides just wide of the far corner.
9'
Aubameyang stretches the Frankfurt defence by sprinting onto a hopeful Willock through ball, before Smith Rowe sends in a looping cross that just evades Saka at the back post.
7'
Frankfurt initially waste a set-piece near the centre circle, but the defender Hinteregger stays up and he almost reaches the second ball into the box before it drifts to Martinez.
4'
Kostic makes progress down the left flank and eventually finds a square pass to Sow 25 yards from goal, and he lashes a shot straight at Martinez.
1'
Arsenal get us underway attacking from left to right.
Willock turns Kohr on the halfway line but runs into the sturdy Frankfurt backline and the away side surrender possession early on.
