F-T Arsenal 1-4 Manchester City
90' Smith Rowe breaks down the left flank to latch on to Kolasinac's throughball. He cuts a cross back towards Balogun, but the ball evades the forward in the box.
87' Fernandinho dispossesses Maitland-Niles and the ball falls to Aguero. He works an offload to Zinchenko on the edge of the box, but the Ukrainian scuffs his strike over the bar.
85' WIDE!
Balogun does well to burst through two challenges and feeds Pepe on the edge of the box. The forward turns and angles a left-footed strike towards goal that sails just wide of the left post.
83' Foden break forward with pace through the middle of the park. Gabriel has to time his tackle to perfection to break up the attack, and does so with a fine challenge on the England man.
81' Smith Rowe tries to feed Kolasinac down the left flank, but Walker does well to put the full-back off and earns a goal-kick for the visitors.
77' Balogun replaces Lacazette.
77' Walker replaces Rodri.

46' Second Half begins..
H-T Arsenal 1-1 Manchester City
45+1' Martinelli is helped to his feet and he is able to walk off to the sidelines. The forward appears to be ready to give it a go for the remainder of the half.
41' SAVE!
Mahrez and Foden combine with Jesus to open up the Arsenal defence for the Brazilian. He only has Runarsson to beat, but the keeper spreads himself to deny the City forward from close range.
34' Cedric lifts a dangerous cross in front the right flank, but Martinelli cannot climb high enough to direct his effort on target.
31' Arsenal 1-1 Manchester City
Goal Alexandre Lacazette.
28' Dias climbs in the box to attack a corner from Mahrez on the right flank, only to nod wide of the target.
27' Gabriel has to clear over his own bar to prevent Rodri from latching on to Cancelo's cross into the box after Mahrez was brought down by Ceballos.
25' Yellow Card to Shkodran Mustafi.
23' Yellow Card to Mohamed Elneny.
19' Arsenal apply pressure up the field, but Lacazette's teasing ball through to Willock is intercepted by Zinchenko.
17' Foden tries to hook a cross from Cancelo towards goal, but he sends his effort tamely into the hands of Runarsson.
14' Cancelo almost slides a pass through to Silva in the right inside channel, but the Portuguese just cannot stretch to make contact.
13' WIDE!
Lacazette gets ahead of his man to connect with Ceballos' corner from the right flank, but he directs his effort wide of the right post.
13' Willock does well down the right flank and he wins a corner off the legs of Zinchenko.
9' A teasing ball by Foden is headed away by Gabriel before the next move is flicked out of play. Much needed touch of the ball for Arsenal who simply haven't had it so far.
6' WIDE!
Arsenal back off City in the final third and it affords Fernandinho time to fire at goal, but his effort is deflected wide of the left post.
3' Arsenal 0-1 Manchester City
Goal Gabriel Jesus.
