Arsenal suffered a crushing 3-1 defeat at the hands of Manchester City in their top-of-the-table Premier League clash on Wednesday night.
City took the lead in the first half after a calamitous mistake from right-back Takehiro Tomiyasu allowed Kevin de Bruyne a guilt-edge chance to break the deadlock before the Belgian finished exquisitely past the onrushing Aaron Ramsdale. But the Gunners fought back and equalised before half-time through Hale End academy graduate Bukayo Saka, who converted his penalty after Eddie Nketiah was brought down in the box by Ederson.
However, the reigning champions showed their class after the break as Jack Grealish and Erling Haaland both found the back of the net to give Pep Guardiola's side all three points, with the north Londoners relinquishing first place in the league for the first time in nearly six months.
