Arsenal and Man City were the two best teams in the Premier League last season. The fact that the two teams pursuing an attacking style of play meet each other promises to bring fans an attractive performance. However, the reality at Wembley was not as expected.

The defending champion and runner-up of the Premier League entered the game cautiously. Both Arsenal and Man City try to keep the ball firmly, while preventing the opponent from doing the same. The first half took place with a tight match and there were not many attractive phases.

Rare opportunities appear with the regret of Arsenal players. Kai Havertz twice faced Man City goalkeeper but could not score. Meanwhile

The game in the first half of the second half was not significantly different from before the break. The attraction and the goals only appeared in the last 30 minutes of the game.

Man City gradually increased the pressure. The options for adjusting the squad of coach Pep Guardiola are effective. Not long after coming on, Kevin De Bruyne set up Cole Palmer to score the opening goal.

Arsenal forced to push up the formation to attack. They did not create any clear chances after letting the opponent lead the table, but luckily on the side of coach Mikel Arteta’s teachers and students.

In injury time lasting more than 10 minutes, Leandro Trossard became Arsenal’s hero after a fortunate finish, the ball touched the Man City defender and changed direction into the goal.
