A Riccardo Calafiori goal and a towering header from Gabriel Magalh\u00e3es weren’t enough for Arsenal as Manchester City grabbed an injury-time equaliser at the Etihad.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Second-half substitute John Stones ensured City snatched a point after he scored in the dying embers of a frantic affair at the home of the champions.<\/p>\n

The 2-2 scoreline will come as a huge disappointment for Gunners supporters. Even though they played the second 45 minutes with ten-men.<\/p>\n

Erling Haaland set the champions on their way as he became a Cityzens centurion when he finished neatly after 9 minutes. However, Mikel Arteta’s side came back fighting.<\/p>\n

Riccardo Calafiori Goal Not Enough For Arsenal<\/h2>\n

An exquisite Riccardo Calafiori goal – his first for Arsenal<\/a> – got the north Londoners back on level terms before Gabriel’s brilliant header put them ahead at the break.<\/p>\n

A dubious second yellow card for Leandro Trossard in first-half stoppage time left a bitter taste as the Gunners knew their task of victory had just gotten much harder.<\/p>\n

It wasn’t until the 98th minute that Manchester City<\/a> hit back when England international John Stones fired in. Much to the relief of Pep Guardiola and his staff.<\/p>\n

On reflection, it was harsh on Arteta’s side as they had composed themselves brilliantly. Despite being a man down. Nonetheless, a draw was perhaps a fair result as both sides remain unbeaten in the Premier League in 2024\/25.<\/p>\n

After the frantic Etihad extravaganza, the best football betting sites<\/a> in the UK still make City the title favourites. They can be backed at 10\/11 with the Gunners 5\/2.<\/p>\n

Up next in the league for Guardiola’s side is a trip to St James’ Park to take on Newcastle United on September 28. Arteta’s side will be hoping to get over the disappointing result when they face Leicester at home on the same day.<\/p>\n

Gunners fans can help ease the wait by watching Calafiori’s stunner on repeat. Scroll down to watch the goal in full.<\/p>\n
