Just when I thought we might miss Gab on set pieces. Good work from Holding and great instincts from Eddie.
Classic Eddie goal

It's the only time he ever starts tbf!
How does Holding not convert so many headers! Good start from our side.
Always in the right place. Good man, Eddie!
I like this ref. Won’t stand for them trying to kick Pepe out of the game. Deserved yellow there. Too often refs let that kind of stuff go unpunished.
That was very good defending by White! Usually he has been poor in those situations.
Utter shite defending by Tavares to allow that chance in the first place though.
Balogun needs to score that.
Ooohh, great cross from Cedric but Balogun, initially unmarked, puts a weak header out. Should have at least hit the target there. Good move though. Pepe always draws min a couple of defenders to make space.

For sure, plus the offenders surname
Balogun again with a weak shot. I feel he will take one of these in this game though.
...and again, needs to do better.
Ooh, big chance for Balogun. Should have done better.
At least he made it into the box and Cedric had plenty to aim at. Positive.
Side-note, some good pressure from Pepe. Has won a couple of balls in the last few minutes as a result.
Love that Nuno always tries to find a CM instead of taking the easy way out and pass back. But then the CM he found is Elneny and the pass goes back to Leno 😆
Lets kill them. 2-0
Pepeeeeee! Always scores. Has a little look at the bench to say “see? I score”.
Pepe with a muted Celebration
I love Holding.
Lucky finish by Pepe. 2-0
