@henrywinter Bernardo winning his duel v Banks, too

Sport distilled into duels, a mix of pace and physicality and occasional adventure. Doku v White, Haaland v Saliba, and the most significant duel of a relatively cagey final so far, Semenyo v Hincapie. Semenyo edging it with his speedy and direct running. Down the other end, Gyokeres edging his battle with Khusanov and Saka v O’Reilly even #ARSMCI

1-1 in bookings is laughable

VAR spent way longer checking this goal than it did for a clear penalty on Havertz.

@martynziegler Headline writer's dream

@jonrest Yep

A mad match and finale Fra v Eng. One for Pollock to forget though. Having taunted France, he managed to go from potential match winner when ripping the ball in last minute to loser - instead of keeping possession he lost it at a critical time.

Club rugby might be on its arse but blimey the international game has had an incredible two months.

It’s a tough league. You can pretend otherwise if it suits you, but that conceit is wearing thin.

My Irish neighbours have just gone up with a roar to equal my Gyokeres/Dowman one earlier. 1-1 #fraeng #afc

@honigstein @sidlowe and the attacker's foot got caught under the defender's arse

@sidlowe Ref gave the penalty. VAR didn’t get involved.

Oh my word. I know, I know, I’m late. But I have just seen Arsenal’s penalty from last night… again, said a million times, the great hope of VAR is the great disappointment: it hasn’t eradicated dives, it has encouraged them

@AlexMSilverman @HenryBushnell Yes agree. We've just started seeing them in Europe with Six Nations Rugby. And it's coming to Uefa Champions League coverage. It's pissed off the traditionalists!

My hunch is the networks will do split-screen ads that keep the game feed on the screen. Good report from @HenryBushnell.

I think my favourite was when a Brighton player booted a FK at his own player 2 yards away and Hurzeler shat his nappy for some reason at the 4th official

Don't watch much of Brighton, but is Hurzeler always so insufferable? Christ what a whiny twat

that is an extraordinary #UCL draw for Arsenal.

@maxrushden Fair play to Dr Tottenham for working on a Sunday. Usually impossible to get an appointment
