Manchester City suffered a third defeat in four games across all competitions after conceding a late goal from Gabriel Martinelli at the Emirates.
Pep Guardiola's side fell to a late Gabriel Martinelli winner at the Emirates after playing out what looked set to be a tense 0-0 draw. The Gunners winger was able to cut inside on 86 minutes, his effort deflecting off Nathan Ake and past a wrong-footed Ederson.
Guardiola orchestrating Large portions of the game resembled a chess match, with two tactically-advanced managers waiting for the other to blink. As modern teams do now, Arsenal were attempting to goad City into pressing and over-committing, with goalkeeper David Raya standing on the ball. And if Kovacic was lucky in the first instance, he couldn't believe his fortune when, six minutes and 15 seconds later, he lunged in late and caught Rice. Oliver instantly waved away calls of a second yellow and Arteta was apoplectic on the touchline, racing to the fourth official with two fingers up and screaming that he should have been sent off - which he probably should have.
