The Gunners continue to chase the Reds for the title in the EPL.

Arsenal defeated Manchester City 5-1 in London, and with the victory, the Gunners are only 6 points from the leader, Liverpool, but the Reds have a game in hand.

After only 2 minutes, Manchester City made a huge mistake when trying to start the attack from the goalkeeper as Ortega failed to give a great pass the ball ended in Kai Havertz, who assisted Martin Odegaard, who scored from inside the box in the middle of the net.

The same mistake happened in the 26th minute this time; the ball ended in Kai Havertz inside the box but failed to find the net as his shot went wide of the right post. That was another fantastic opportunity that the German forward of the Gunners missed since the beginning of the season, which cost his team points in the long run.

The Sky Blues also had chances to score in the 1st half, but David Raya, with 3 great saves, kept the lead of his team at halftime.

Savinho, with a phenomenal cross, assisted Erling Haaland, who headed the ball to tie the result 1-1 in the 55th minute.

However, after that, Foden made a big mistake in the 56th minute, who provided the ball to Partey, who shot, and after a deflection from John Stones, the ball ended in Ortega’s net, and the home team took the lead again – 2-1.

With a phenomenal goal with a shot inside the penalty area in the 62nd minute, Myles Lewis-Skelly made his team’s lead 2 goals.

Kai Havertz compensated for his mistake in the 1st half, and this time, the German scored to make it 4-1 in the 76th minute; that wasn’t all, as Ethan Nwaneri, who replaced Trossard, scored in the extra time to make it 5-1, and made all the fans in the Emirates happy.
