Summary

Amy Lawrence and James McNicholas join Ian Stone to discuss Arsenal claiming a hard earned point away at Man City.

City scored in the 98th minute to deny Arsenal what would have been a famous away win at The Etihad after Mikel Arteta's team had defended their lead so well for 45 minutes with 10 men.

The panel discuss how brilliantly Arsenal reacted to going 1-0 down under intense pressure with a debut wonder goal from Calafiori and another big header from Gabriel, and how they then reacted brilliantly again to going down to 10 men after Trossard was sent off for a second yellow.

Plus, Viv Miedema scored on her City debut against Arsenal as the women also drew 2-2 at The Emirates in front of over 40,000 fans.

Produced by Jesse Howard.
