Arsenal 0-1 Man City

IT’S AN irony the only live theatre in London this weekend was seen at the Emirates Stadium.

The compelling performance came from Premier League champions-elect Manchester City, who eased to a 1-0 victory over Arsenal through an early headed goal from an unchallenged Raheem Sterling in a crowded box.

The vibrant visitors, led by virtuoso genius Pep Guardiola, gave an outstanding performance in a mesmerising opening half-hour full of verve, in which they moved the ball with ease and artistry to leave the Gunners uneasily chasing shadows.
