In the Premier League, Arsenal takes on Leicester City in an attempt to bounce back from their thrilling tie with championship contenders Manchester City the previous weekend. Deep into injury time, John Stones managed to break through the Gunners' 10-man defensive wall against City, forcing Mikel Arteta's team to settle for a 2-2 draw when an incredible victory was still possible.
After being promoted from the Championship last season, Leicester City has struggled to adjust to life back in the Premier League. Despite having three draws in their first five games, they have still unable to secure a victory. On minute 21, Gabriel Martinelli scored the first goal of the match, solidifying the Gunners' early dominance.
Leandro Trossard made a spectacular comeback from suspension shortly before halftime, double Arsenal's lead.
In an unexpected change of events, James Justin startled the Emirates Stadium with a spectacular volley to tie the score at 2-2. With complete control of the ball and relentless pressure to force the visitors back into their box, Mikel Arteta's team easily defeated the Foxes in the first half.

Gabriel Martinelli's well-executed finish gave the Gunners the lead, which Leandro Trossard soon doubled. Just after the half, though, the visitors equalized with a header from Justin that took David Raya by surprise and caught the Spanish goalkeeper off guard. The 26-year-old then completed his brace with a fantastic volley, precisely collecting the ball as it arrowed in off the post.
The Leicester full-back scored his second goal of the day just after the hour, making the score 2-2 with a beautiful volley. The Gunners won 4-2 as Kai Havertz scored from close range after Trossard scored his second goal in the last second to make it 3-2.
