Man United vs Omonia LIVE: Europa League result and final score as Scott McTominay fires last-minute winner

12 mins: Bodo/Glimt are forced into an early change as Ilrik Saltnes has to go off. He’s aggravated a pre-existing injury and gets replaced with Albert Gronbaek.

That’s a blow for the home side.

9 mins: Brice Wembangomo fouls Bukayo Saka on the right wing and gives Arsenal a free kick. They take it quickly and work it over to the opposite wing.

Tierney can’t find a way down the line and guides a pass back to Saliba who floats one back over to Saka. Saka combines with Odegaard to get the ball into the penalty area but he pulls it back to Sambi Lokonga who scuffs an effort wide of goal.

6 mins: Chance! A lovely pass down the left wing comes to Amahl Pellegrino who eaves his way into the box and sends one across the six-yard area.

There are three of his team mates up with him but Arsenal manage to scramble the ball clear.

3 mins: Close! Bukayo Saka is played in behind with a chipped pass over the top from Ben White. Bodo/Glimt’s goalkeeper, Nikita Haikin, decides to sprint off his line but Saka beats him to the ball and flicks a pass into the six-yard area.

Reiss Nelson and Eddie Nketiah try to get on the end of the pass but neither Arsenal man can turn the ball towards goal and the whistle goes for a free kick to the home team.

The home side get the match underway anf Arsenal look to press high up the pitch. They win a throw in and send it to Rob Holding who works it across the Gunners’ back line.

Arsenal content just to keep possession and play themselves into the game.

Here come the teams!

Arsenal have every reason to be confident of picking up a win tonight but Jose Mourinho’s Roma came here last season and lost 6-1. The Gunners won’t underestimate their opponents as much tonight and will look to start well on this artificial pitch.

Bodo/Glimt boss Kjetil Knutsen spoke of what he’s expecting from Arsenal in the build up to this evening’s game and says this match will be one of the biggest matches his team have ever played.

“It is perhaps the biggest match we’ll play,” he said. “At least it is against the best opponent. Not necessarily because they have better individual players than Roma, but there is something about the professionalism and history of the club. All the games in Europe are fantastic for me.

“We will see how much you can learn in a week and get an answer to that tomorrow. What matters is that we dare to be the best version of ourselves. Then we’ll see if we learn along the way, and then at least I’ll be satisfied.”

Arsenal are unbeaten away to Norwegian teams in Europe with two wins and one draw. Most recently the defeated Molde 3-0 in the 2020/21 edition of the Europa League with goals from Nicolas Pepe, Reiss Nelson and Folarin Balogun.

The Gunners have won six of their seven previous encounters against Norwegian opponents, with their only failure to record a victory coming in a 1-1 Champions League group stage draw against Rosenborg in September 2004.

If Eddie Nketiah scores tonight for Arsenal he will become the first Englishman to score in five starts in a row in the Europa League.
