Match Overview 📝
The game started with Arsenal dominating possession and creating numerous chances. Gabriel Martinelli opened the scoring in the 20th minute, finishing a well-placed cross from Jurrien Timber. 🎯 Just before halftime, Leandro Trossard doubled the lead with a calm finish after a setup from Martinelli, making it 2-0 at the break. 🙌
Leicester's Comeback 🔄

However, Leicester City responded strongly in the second half. James Justin, who had been relatively quiet in the first half, scored twice within a short span. His first goal came just after the restart with a deflected header that caught Arsenal goalkeeper David Raya off guard. ⚡ Justin then equalized in the 63rd minute with a stunning volley that rattled off the post and into the net, shifting momentum towards Leicester.
Late Drama 🎉



Despite Leicester's resurgence, Arsenal maintained pressure and created several opportunities to regain the lead. Mads Hermansen, Leicester's goalkeeper, made critical saves to keep his team level. However, in the fourth minute of stoppage time, disaster struck for Leicester when Wilfred Ndidi inadvertently deflected Trossard's shot into his net, restoring Arsenal's lead. 😱
