Arsenal and Lille were playing a Champions League match on Tuesday, with the game still underway at the 37-minute mark.
Lille had a goal ruled out for offside after Ayase Ueda turned the ball into the net.
Arsenal had created several chances, including shots by Bruno Guimaraes and Eberechi Eze, but neither scored.
Lille had also kept Arsenal from building much momentum for stretches of the first half.
No goal had been reported as counting in the match at that point.
The live match was continuing, with more play still to come.
Arsenal beat Lille 3-0 at Emirates Stadium to maintain their perfect start to the Champions League league phase.
