Hello and welcome to football.london for live coverage of Liam Rosenior's post-match press conference following Chelsea's 3-2 defeat to Arsenal at Stamford Bridge.
The Gunners took the lead early on when Ben White headed home from a corner. It was 2-0 in the second-half when Viktor Gyokeres took advantage of a mistake from goalkeeper Robert Sanchez, but the Blues found a route back into the tie through substitute Alejandro Garnacho.
When Martin Zubimendi made it 3-1 to the visitors on 71 minutes, it looked as if Arsenal would take a two-goal advantage into next month's second-leg. Though Garnacho was on hand to reduce the deficit with just seven minutes of normal time remaining in west London.
It's the first defeat of Rosenior's reign at Stamford Bridge and we will hear from the Chelsea head coach shortly. Bobby Vincent is at Stamford Bridge to bring you word-for-word updates from Rosenior's presser.
