Arsenal’s pre-season continues with an International Champions Cup clash against French champions Paris Saint-Germain today.

Unai Emery’s team will be hoping to bounce back after a 3-1 penalty shootout defeat by Atletico Madrid earlier this week, after a 1-1 draw in normal time.

PSG will likely pose a similarly tough test, with former Arsenal managerial target Unai Emery in the dugout.

75 mins: Both sides have made a raft of substitutions.

78 mins: Yet another chance for Weah, after a couple of mistakes from Bellerin. But the striker belts his shot into the Spanish full-back and Arsenal clear.

81 mins: I'm not really sure what Thomas Tuchel will have learnt from this match, considering only three of the players who started this match will have realistic hopes of starting the season in PSG's first-team.

Rabiot has impressed. Weah has been bright. Nundu has been lively. But they look a long way short of Arsenal's fitness levels and have been poor this second-half.

83 mins: PSG may be trailing 3-1 but it's Arsenal who are looking more lively as the clock winds down.

85 mins: "It's not going to be easy for a team like Arsenal to get back into the top four," our commentator friend notes."Even a team like West Ham will hope to be up there."

Five minutes until the sweet release of full-time.

87 mins: How is that not four?!

Nelson collects Lacazette's low pass in the box but his low shot is beaten away by the keeper. He should have done better.

88 mins: GOAL! Arsenal 4-1 Paris Saint-Germain.

Rob Holding heads home from a corner. Arsenal lead 4-1. They're going to win the Champions League.

89 mins: That was a superb header from Holding, to be fair. Nelson atones for his miss a few moments ago with a wonderfully weighted header, picking out Holding on the penalty spot.

His header loops over Cibois and under the bar, and Arsenal lead 4-1.
