FT: Murphy puts Newcastle ahead at Fulham before Muniz equalises
Arsenal 0-0 Hull
Lucas Gourna-Douath slides in and takes out Riccardo Calafiori with a badly-timed tackle and Arsenal have a free-kick some 35 yards from goal.
Martin Odegaard and Declan Rice exchange passes before the former whips in a cross that Nobel Mendy heads away.
Fulham 0-0 Newcastle
That looked like it would be the moment Newcastle unlocked Fulham as the ball is shifted across by Yoane Wissa and Harvey Barnes tries to wrap his foot around it but ends up clipping the outside the post.
Arsenal 0-0 Hull
Arsenal get the second half under way.
Fulham 0-0 Newcastle
Back under way at Craven Cottage.
HT: Fulham 0-0 Newcastle
Fulham have failed to score a first half goal in six of their last seven Premier League games, although they've only lost one of the previous six matches (W2 D3).
Meanwhile, Newcastle have failed to score in the first half of five consecutive Premier League games within a single season for the first time since October 2024.

That is a very controversial VAR intervention at the Emirates.
A player who is in an offside position only becomes active when they commit an offside offence.
Kai Havertz must be "attempting to play the ball, or challenging an opponent for the ball" - otherwise the shirt pull by Nobel Mendy takes precedence. The foul comes before any offside offence.
Havertz did not commit an offside offence, and this should have been a spot-kick to Arsenal regardless of the offside.
We saw this a couple of seasons ago between Newcastle and Bournmouth. Fabian Schar was just offside but pulled back as he moved to run onto a free-kick delivery. A penalty was awarded after a VAR review.

Arsenal are not having this all their own way. They’ve certainly not dazzled in the final third, and have been wasteful at times.But Hull deserve a huge amount of credit for that. They’ve been compact, but not at the expense of an attacking threat. I think they’ve surprised a few with their desire to go forward. Perhaps Arsenal have been slightly taken aback by that approach too?

There hasn’t been any real clear-cut chances. The game is very stretched at both ends. They’re both getting on the ball at the back with no real pressure on the ball. The longer the half went on it started getting a bit stale but it’s been a bit better.
Sean Steur is neat and tidy. He gets on it and tries to get forward. He tries to make things happen. The changes Matthias Jaissle has made have made an impact but it’s a tightly balanced game.
Arsenal 0-0 Hull
Not the most exciting game in the world. Hull have probably had the best chances of the game.

Why have they stopped the game for a review if Havertz is offside?
Dan, London
You can guarantee decisions like the one against Wissa will go the other way all season without controversy.

Fulham 0-0 Newcastle
Frustrating half for both sides with chances for each but a lack of end product.

Alex Iwobi spots the run of Josh King and sends the ball into the area but the youngster can't get enough on it.
He is really trying to impress Thomas Tuchel here.

That was box office.
The refereee Farai Hallam announces that there is a holding offence which would have been a penalty, however, Havertz is offside so it's a free kick to Hull.
Arsenal 0-0 Hull
Kai Havertz does have his shirt pulled by Nobel Mendy but Havertz was offside.
Boos from the Arsenal fans as the referee explains why it is not a penalty.

Josh King and Timothy Castagne try to play a little one-two down the right but the defender's ball into the box is too deep and goes out for a goal kick.

A VAR check her for a shirt pull on Havertz in the box.
Arsenal 0-0 Hull
The game has been stopped and Farai Hallam is being asked by VAR to go to the screen to check a possible penalty for Arsenal...

That effort from Tzolis has gone so high over the goal its landed in the second tier. It sums up the half for Arsenal from an attacking perspective really.
Arsenal 0-0 Hull
Jurriën Timber's clipped ball across the box finds Christos Tzolis but he blasts a volley way over. He'd have been offside if he'd scored anyway.
Fulham 0-0 Newcastle
Josh King almost puts the cherry on the cake of his week with a spectacular strike on the volley but Lukas Hornicek gets across well to make the save.
That would have been some goal, he caught it so sweetly.
