Arsenal 0-1 Man City
11. So what’s the Arsenal response?
Nothing in the immediate aftermath as City are actually enjoying their best spell of possession in the game so far.
Such a noise in here 13 minutes ago, now only made by the Sky Blue shirts in that corner.
GOAL DETAIL: Arsenal 0-1 Man City
Their first attack, the first goal!
Erling Haaland’s goal-scoring run continues and what a goal this is.
Haaland himself inside his own half lays it out for Reijnders to drive forward.
Haaland had Gabriel at his back at the time but spins away from home and motors through the middle, while the Brazilian defender looks to be towing a caravan in pursuit.
Reijnders drives to 30 yards from goal and times the pass superbly for Haaland to take a touch before slotting beyond Raya from inside the box with his weaker right foot.
Pace, power, precision. Sensational again from Erling Haaland!
GOOOOOAAAAALLLL!!! Arsenal 0-1 MANCHESTER CITY
Who else!?
ERLING HAALAND again for City!
Arsenal 0-0 Man City
6. Outwith Khusanov, City haven’t really settled yet.
Timber almost gets Madueke free down the right but Gvardiol gets back and rushes a clearance out for a throw-in.
Two or three times the ball has just been launched forward when defending.
Arsenal 0-0 Man City
4. More great defending from Khusanov who has to chase Trossard in full flight down that same left hand side.
Great pace shown by the defender and then strength to nudge the Belgian off the ball before rolling a pass to Rodri. Great early couple of settlers for him.
All Arsenal in terms of possession in the opening four or five minutes.
Arsenal 0-0 Man City
2. Khusanov with a thunderous, fair challenge on Calafiori who had gotten really far forward down the Arsenal left.
Right in front of the travelling supporters too who loved that one.
