Manchester City prove their supremacy on Sunday as they gun down the gunners 3-1 to take a tight grip at the top of Premier League table.
Kevin de Bruyne has a right-footed shot saved by Petr Cech, and 10 seconds later he plays a one-two with Fernandinho and batters a left-footed shot past Cech from the corner of the penalty area in the 18th minute of the game to give City 1-0 up against Arsenal.
On 50th minute, Sergio Aguero scored a penalty for City to make it 2-0 for the home side after Raheem Sterling has been fouled.
Aguero side-foots his penalty against the inside of the post and in went the ball.
Arsenal pulled one back in the 65th minute of the game through Alexandre Lacazette. Lacazette comes off the bench to drag Arsenal back into this game. Alex Iwobi into Aaron Ramsey, he picks out Lacazette on the blind side of Nicolas Otamendi, one touch to steady and one to smash through Ederson’s legs.
City quickly restored their two goals lead when Gabriel Jesus scored the third goal in the 75th minute to seal Arsenal’s fate.
It all starts with Alexis Sanchez losing the ball in his own left-back position. City surround him in numbers and work it well into the run of David Silva, who looks a mile off. Arsenal all stop, Silva lays it on a plate for Gabriel Jesus, who buries it.
