Arsenal Trample Manchester City in an Explosive Weekend of Football
EPL GW 8 brought us the mother of all matches with Arsenal facing off with Manchester City in what was set to be an epic. The match started with both teams seemingly equalling each other in strength despite Arsenal missing the services of Bukayo Saka.
Come the second half, things quickly started ramping up with multiple attempts at goal and none coming to fruition. It was then that Gabriel Martinelli stepped up in the 86th minute and gave Arsenal a legendary winning goal, with the game ending with Arsenal 1, Manchester City 0.

Thank You Arteta!

You can remember that Arsenal got a few points close to lifting the Premier League title and with the way they are playing, they may just be the champions come the end of this season.
