Arsenal 2 - 2 Man City

By Chris Harris at Emirates Stadium

We twice came from behind to earn a battling draw in an entertaining return to Premier League action.

Leroy Sane got in behind our defence to sidestep David Ospina and score into an empty net, but we responded well and equalised when Theo Walcott rolled the ball past Willy Caballero.

Our joy was short-lived, David Silva setting up Sergio Aguero for City’s second. But the outstanding Shkodran Mustafi soared high to power in a second equaliser from Mesut Ozil’s corner.

Not for the first time, these teams shared an attacking mindset - and made the odd defensive error. But a draw was a fair result and, although it keeps us in sixth place, the tenacity and character in the performance should breed confidence.

Another home game is right around the corner - West Ham are at the Emirates on Wednesday.
