Arsenal battled to a 1-1 draw with Manchester City at the Emirates – but it wasn’t the performance Gooners were hoping for. After a sluggish first half where Arsenal struggled to get going, Mikel Arteta’s side came alive in the second half. And just when it looked like City would leave with all three points, Gabriel Martinelli stepped up with a late beautiful strike to salvage a crucial point!

In this video, I break down the full 90:
