Man City 's lead was maintained until the final minutes of injury time, before Gabriel Martinelli brought 1 point for Arsenal.

With this result, Arsenal is still ranked second in the table, but is 5 points behind the leading team Liverpool, while Man City is ranked 9th.

After the match, Pep lamented the schedule: “ We are extremely tired. After the match against Napoli and the recovery day after that, Man City had to travel 4-5 hours to London. We also had many injured players .”

The Man City captain added: “ I think the result is fair, but overall Arsenal played better .”

In the match at Emirates, Man City only had 32.8% possession, the lowest ever by a team led by Pep Guardiola, in a top-flight match.

Mikel Arteta regretted that with such a game, Arsenal should have won, instead of only getting 1 point at the last minute.

“ I am very proud of Arsenal, the way we played, the way we dominated Man City,… That is why I am very disappointed with the final result .”

Despite the disappointment of not getting 3 points, Mikel Arteta set a record against Pep Guardiola. He became the only manager to have a 5-match unbeaten streak against Man City in the Premier League.

Arsenal have shown a very good record in tense matches, with 13 wins, 10 draws and just 1 loss in their last 24 matches against big teams in the Premier League.
