  "account": "Arsenal’s pre-season friendly against Borussia Dortmund is scheduled to kick off at 2:00pm BST on Sunday 9 August at the Emirates Stadium in London. The match, part of the Emirates Cup, will see Mikel Arteta’s team face the Bundesliga giants. Unfortunately, due to technical issues, the clash with Real Betis will not be shown on Arsenal’s website and app. However, supporters who purchased access to the Girona match or the entire pre-season bundle are entitled to a full refund. The Dortmund game will be accessible for free on Arsenal’s YouTube channel, though some territories may be excluded. The Independent will offer a minute-by-minute live blog for those who prefer to follow the action online. Arsenal will be hoping to gain momentum after their recent setback against Real Betis, which resulted in a 3-1 defeat. Vinicius Jr. has opted for a long-term extension at Real Madrid, causing a setback for Arteta, who is now looking for alternative targets. A knee injury to Dortmund’s Carney Chukwuemeka and missing out on Carney Chukwuemeka could impact Dortmund's performance.",
