Theo Walcott lays the ball back to Bacary Sagna, who delivers a perfect cross for Nicklas Bendtner to head past Marcus Hahnemann. Arsene Wenger is delirious.

Samir Nasri picks the ball up 40 yards out, for some reason is allowed to run unchallenged towards the Blues goal and from 20 yards unleashes a fine right-foot drive that flies low into the far corner.

That’s a potential hammer blow for the Gunners. Craig Gardner’s ball into the Arsenal box is kicked against Kevin Phillips by Bacary Sagna and the ball flies towards Manuel Almunia, who can only parry it up into the air and into his net. Shocking goalkeeping.

Denilson escapes the attentions of a couple of Hammers defenders on the edge of the box, plays a neat one-two with Nicklas Bendtner, and then kerplunks a low drive into the bottom corner.

Guillermo Franco, bearing down on goal, goes down under Thomas Vermaelen’s challenge in the box and referee Martin Atkinson - assisted by his linesman - points to the spot and brandishes a red card for a professional foul. Alessandro Diamanti steps up to take the spot-kick but Manuel Almunia goes the right way, to his left, and beats it away brilliantly. Drama, drama, drama.

Huge sighs of relief at the Emirates Stadium. No question about this penalty - Matthew Upson clearly handling the ball as Cesc Fabregas attempted to burst into the box. The Spaniard then composed himself and smashed home the spot-kick. It looks like six wins on the spin for Arsenal and a place at the top of the Premier League overnight.

Typically neat build-up play from Arsenal ends with Cesc Fabregas playing the ball to Samir Nasri and making a run into the box, which no-one tracks. Nasri sticks his foot under the ball and plays the most glorious pass over the top for Fabregas to finish with one touch.

Arsenal have had so many chances to have this game won three times over - and wouldn’t you know it? Emmanuel Eboue’s hoofed clearance is headed back into the danger area by Leon Cort and David Nugent runs in between two defenders and lifts the ball over Manuel Almunia.

Nicklas Bendtner turns provider - good move - and he plays in Theo Walcott, who takes a couple of touches to his left and curls a delicious left-foot effort inside the far post. He celebrates by running to the bench and pointing to an imaginary watch on his wrist.

From a short corner, Eduardo plays it to Andrey Arshavin, who smashes a left-foot shot into the bottom corner.

A second Rory Delap throw and Arsenal again don’t deal with it - in any way, at all. Ryan Shawcross heads it on and Danny Pugh loses his marker to apply the finishing touch at the far post. He looks over at the linesman - but he needn’t worry, Thomas Vermaelen was generously playing him onside.

Cesc Fabregas crosses from the right and Nicklas Bendtner pulls away from his marker to send a looping header back past Thomas Sorensen. By the way, Arsenal are now making a real fight of this.

Danny Pugh has his arms up on the edge of the area and his left one blocks Nicklas Bendtner’s attempted pass. He’ll say it wasn’t deliberate, but you’re always in trouble when you have your arms up like that. Thomas Sorensen guesses the right way but Cesc Fabregas manages to squeeze the spot-kick into the far corner.

Into the seven minutes of added time and that should wrap it up. Thomas Sorensen parries Tomas Rosicky’s shot but Cesc Fabregas is first to the rebound and he sets up Thomas Vermaelen to tap into the empty net. A lot of Thomas’s going on there.

Arsenal move to within two point of second place Man Utd with a comfortable 2-0 win over Sunderland at the Emirates on Saturday.

Eboue runs into the right side of the box and he is allowed to run to six yards out by McCartney before he crosses to Bendtner to tap in unmarked at the far post. Poor defending.

Sunderland were putting some late pressure on the Gunners, but the home team break quickly and when Cesc Fabregas gets into the box on the right he is brought down in a tangle of legs with Fraizer Campbell. The Spaniard picks himself up, dusts himself down and coolly slots past Craig Gordon into the corner to wrap it up.

Arsene Wenger’s off the bench - what a massive goal that is for the Gunners. It’s fairly simple, too, as Tomas Rosicky swings over a cross from the right and Abou Diaby rises high to crash a header into the Liverpool net.
