What Gabriel Jesus did after power cut at Elland Road in Leeds United vs Arsenal

Arsenal's clash at Elland Road against Leeds United was delayed by over 35 minutes due to a power cut. The game got underway but only lasted a matter of seconds before the referee halted proceedings.

Players of both sides waited on the Elland Road surface for the issue to be resolved, but after around 15 minutes, they headed back into the changing rooms. The power cut meant that goal line technology and VAR couldn't be used, while it also affected the match officials' communication kit.

However, play did get back underway at around 2:40pm after the players came back out onto the pitch to go through some short warm up procedures. When the play was stopped for the power cut, the ball had just gone out for a throw in to the Whites.
