Events

Match Events

0' That's the starting whistle at Emirates Stadium. Ninety minutes of football awaits between Arsenal FC and Manchester City FC.
2' Goal! Martin Odegaard scores his 65 goal in 282 matches.
7' James McAtee is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Arsenal FC tonight.
12' Raheem Sterling has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 20 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
17' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Pep Guardiola will be considering his options from the bench.
22' named a 4-3-3 earlier, and opted for a 4-2-3-1 in response. A fascinating tactical duel is developing.
26' Arsenal FC receives a card for a hard tackle on 26.
31' Manchester City FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
36' Josko Gvardiol has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
41' Arsenal FC is showing some good football. However, Arsenal FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
46' Over 46 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
51' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
55' Erling Haaland makes no mistake. The score reads 1-1 and Manchester City FC are in front.
57' Against the run of play, Thomas Partey has scored! This game has turned on its head.
62' The 27-year-old Matheus Nunes has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 1 assists is a remarkable return.
63' What a moment for Myles Lewis-Skelly! That strike on 63 puts his side firmly in control.
68' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
71' The referee does not hesitate — a card for Martin Odegaard on 71 minutes.
72' The whistle greets Phil Foden as he departs to be replaced by James McAtee.
76' What a strike from Kai Havertz! The score is 4-1.
81' Martinelli has been relatively quiet despite scoring 66 goals in his last 81 appearances.
83' Arsenal FC ring the changes. Martin Odegaard has done his job and it is now time for Mikel Merino to step up.
88' Supporters expect more eagerness from William Saliba, as he is very good at scoring at Emirates Stadium with 3 goals in the last 3 games.
89' Arsenal FC ring the changes. Kai Havertz has done his job and it is now time for Raheem Sterling to step up.
Manchester City FC will have plenty to reflect on. Arsenal FC were simply the better side today.
