Arsenal defender Riccardo Calafiori scored his first goal on his first start for the club against Premier League holders Manchester City. A few weeks before his first start, he said that he would offer ‘more’ to the team if he played.
A left footed curler from the edge of the box pulled Arsenal level in the game on Sunday. Gabriel then put the Gunners ahead before the break. Leandro Trossard was sent off after receiving a second yellow card for kicking the ball away, the second time this has happened to the Gunners this season.
Arsenal played with 10 men for the whole second half, and shut out City till a late goal from John Stones rescued a point for the league leaders. After the game, Manchester City players made a whole lot of comments on Arsenal’s approach to the match.
