  • 7' Kevin De Bruyne adds to his 5 season tally! Manchester City FC lead 1-0 — and this changes everything.
  • 12' Over 12 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
  • 17' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Pep Guardiola will be considering his options from the bench.
  • 22' Manchester City FC is showing some good football. However, Manchester City FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 27' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 27 minutes.
  • 32' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
  • 37' Manchester City FC are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
  • 42' Kyle Walker needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 2 Red cards this season.

  • 46' The deadlock is broken! John Stones gets on the scoresheet on 45 minutes.

  • 60' Martinelli makes way for Leandro Trossard at the 60 minute mark. A tactical switch from Arsenal FC.
  • 65' Manchester City FC are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined Arsenal FC backline.
  • 70' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Arsenal FC that had 428 games and scored 748 goals.
  • 72' Riyad Mahrez has so much to prove this time. He replaces Ilkay Gundogan on 72 minute.
  • 75' It’s a booking for Manchester City FC player. Jack Grealish gets a Yellow card.
