What a comeback for Manchester City! They enjoyed more possession, more shots and more corners in the first-half, but ultimately looked toothless with their fluid six-man midfield looking shapeless and listless in equal measure.
But how a goal can change everything. A positional error from Koscielny allowed Sane to level the scores, and suddenly City clicked into life, with De Bruyne pulling all the strings, Sane threatening in a more central position, and Toure vastly improved just behind them.
Ozil was anonymous, Alexis barely had a sniff after picking up a knock at the end of the first-half, and an injured Oxlade-Chamberlain had to be subbed off shortly after coming on. Wenger's side attempted to rally at the end, but ultimately poor discipline cost them dear and - for the second time in a week - they've sacrificed a winning position to lose 2-1.
