Match report: Leeds United 0-0 Arsenal

By Chris Harris

WHAT HAPPENED

Nicolas Pepe was sent off for the first time in his career but we stood firm to secure a point at Elland Road.

The Ivory Coast winger saw red early in the second half following an off-the-ball clash with Ezgjan Alioski.

We were forced back after that but stout defending, the woodwork and fine goalkeeping from Bernd Leno kept Leeds at bay.

And we almost snatched victory when Bukayo Saka raced through to force a save from Illan Meslier.

An attacking reshuffle saw Willian and Pepe both start, and we were collectively bright and tenacious in the early stages.
