Half-Time Report: Arsenal being held by Fulham

Arsenal are being held to a goalless draw by Fulham in their Premier League meeting this afternoon.

Arsenal are being held to a goalless draw by Fulham after 45 minutes of their Premier League match this afternoon.

The hosts had an early chance to take the lead through Mesut Ozil after he was slipped through by Jack Wilshere, but his scuffed effort was cleared off the line by Brede Hangeland.

The Gunners almost fell behind midway through the first half, as Steve Sidwell lashed in a strike from the edge of the box that Wojciech Szczesny had to be alert to tip over the bar.

Fulham were posing a threat and Szczesny had to be out quickly off his line to reach the ball ahead of Ashkan Dejagah.

Arsenal's best chance of the half fell to Bacary Sagna, when a free kick from Santi Cazorla broke kindly to him inside the box, but Maarten Stekelenburg got down quickly to make the save.
