Gabriel Martinelli scores late winner to condemn City to their second consecutive Premier League defeat
City started brightly and didn’t allow Arsenal into the game, with David Raya’s early insecurity underpinning a generally shaky Gunners start.The major talking point of a first half with only one shot on target from either side was Mateo Kovacic’s tackling.
The Croatian could have received two red cards in seven minutes for challenges on Martin Odegaard and Declan Rice, yet was only given one yellow by referee Michael Oliver. But as the game looked to be petering out, with just one shot on target from either side, Martinelli’s deflected strike ensured Arsenal would take all three points, and condemned City to their third loss in four games.– Started shakily as he flapped at a City corner within the first five minutes, and got shakier under pressure from Julian Alvarez 10 minutes later. Didn’t have much else to do thanks to his defence.
