FA to investigate after bottles thrown at Kevin De Bruyne during Arsenal vs Man City

The Football Association will investigate after bottles, cups and other objects were thrown at Manchester City player Kevin De Bruyne during their win at Arsenal.

De Bruyne had given City the lead in a top-of-the-table clash at the Emirates, latching onto a defensive mistake to send a brilliant lob over Aaron Ramsdale. Bukayo Saka equalised after a hot-tempered first half, before City scored twice after the break to secure three valuable points.

After setting up Erling Haaland to make it 3-1, De Bruyne was substituted in the 87th minute for Kalvin Phillips, and as he exited the field on the far side, he was then targeted by a number of objects thrown from sections containing Arsenal supporters as he walked around to the City bench.
