Manchester City v Arsenal LIVE: Result and final score as John Stones breaks defiant 10-man Gunners

Paul Merson reacts to the draw on Sky Sports: “A shame for Arsenal, City ran out if ideas, they looked like they ran out of ideas, Arsenal did brilliantly, but now they will look back and wonder.”

“At the start of the game you would have taken a draw, so fair play to Arsenal.”

While Theo Walcott said: “They limited Manchester City to scraps.”

After 100 minutes of tense fractious action, the points are shared in a thrilling match between the defending champions and those who pushed them to the final match last season.

It was contentious from the outset, Havertz left Rodri on the floor after the first five seconds and the tempers flared until the final whistle.

Leandro Trossard’s red card forced Arsenal to go defensive, and they almost managed to keep out City, but after stoppage time had run out, Stones managed to level the tie and ensure the home side’s record at the Etihad would not be broken.

90+9 minutes: It’s all kicking off on the pitch, the players are pushing and shoving.

90+8 minutes: GOAL! We have gone past the 97 minutes and the game is still continuing.

There are two more minutes left.

There have been seven minutes of time added on, but there could still be more than that!

90+1 minutes: The game ticks over into added time.

Timber is down, Raya kicks the ball out having been told to get on with it by referee Michael Oliver.

But when the ball does go out, the physio has rushed onto the field to attend to Timber.

Oliver is showing Bernardo Silva a yellow card for his words over the incident. Guardiola is not happy with the added time.

89 minutes: Gabriel is down for a brief stoppage but he doesn’t look to happy at the referee.

He was originally holding his mouth and Guardiola uses it as an excuse to call some of his players over for a quick pep-talk.

City are starting to look a little bit frustrated as Jesus comes on for fellow countryman Martinelli.
