WATCH: “Bunch of weak a** bitches; Don’t have that dawg in them”- Fans bury Arsenal after Kevin de Bruyne gives Manchester City an early lead
The Manchester side show us the form that made them the Champions of England last season
Manchester City wasted no time in taking the lead against Arsenal in the probable title-decider Premier League match. The Clash at Manchester was billed the “Title Decider” as early as January. Despite Arsenal being five points clear, Pep Guardiola’s men still had two games in hand over the North London outfit.
The scoreline was opened after just six minutes of play, when Kevin De Bruyne‘s shot from outside the box found the bottom corner. Manchester City managed to block the midfield to cut balls to Xhaka and Odegaard. The London side were left shellshocked at the Cityzens’ intensity and failed to possess the ball for long in their final third.
One goal down against Guardiola’s city usually ends up meaning, “Game. Set and Match”. However, the London outfit will be determined to not let a single setback determine their season. Once the Gunners regain possession, we can expect them to launch attack after attack at the Etihad’s warriors.
