The league leaders were completely outclassed by the home team in all departments of the game, which resulted in the high scoreline against the team.

With only two points between the leaders and the current runners-up and five outstanding matches for Arsenal and seven for the citizens after week 33, it’s unlikely that the league leaders will remain unbeaten in the remaining five matches of the 2022/2023 League season.

Mercurial midfielder Kevin De Bruyne netted a brace for Manchester City after scoring early for the Citizens in the 7th minute of the first half of the match.

His brace came in the 54th minute of the second half for Manchester City’s third goal.

John Stones headed in Kevin De Bruyne’s free-kick outside Arsenal’s eighteen-yard box for Manchester City’s second goal in one minute of first-half extra time.

The goal was, however, subjected to VAR review and cleared for a goal by match referee Jarrett Gillett.
