Man City v Arsenal LIVE: Result and score as John Stones breaks 10-man Gunners


John Stones fires home Manchester City’s equaliser (Reuters)

Manchester City and Arsenal shared a furious and dramatic 2-2 draw at the Etihad Stadium after John Stones’ 98th minute equaliser.

City took the lead when Erling Haaland struck early in the game and the champions looked in full control. But the game unravelled for Pep Guardiola’s side, first when Rodri came off injured on 20 minutes, and then when Arsenal defender Riccardo Calafiori swept home a stunning equaliser.

Gabriel then rose to power home a head and give Arsenal a 2-1 lead heading into half-time, but moments before the break the Gunners were reduced to 10 men in unusual circumstances when Leandro Trossard first clattered into City’s Bernardo Silva and then kicked the ball away in frustration.

City spent the entire second half attacking and left it very, very late to finally get the goal that denied 10-man Arsenal a huge victory.

Full time: Manchester City 2-2 Arsenal

After 100 minutes of tense fractious action, the points are shared in a thrilling match between the defending champions and those who pushed them to the final match last season.

It was contentious from the outset, Havertz left Rodri on the floor after the first five seconds and the tempers flared until the final whistle.

Leandro Trossard’s red card forced Arsenal to go defensive, and they almost managed to keep out City, but after stoppage time had run out, Stones managed to level the tie and ensure the home side’s record at the Etihad would not be broken.
