<p>The fall-out from <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/man-city-player-ratings-arsenal-john-stones-kyle-walker/blt1f66ea9657546093" target="_blank">Manchester City's draw with Arsenal</a> continues after a fiery contest that saw Rodri go off injured and <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-us/lists/rodri-season-over-pep-guardiola-confirms-man-city-acl-injury-football-expert/blt8f4b68bfd511aec3" target="_blank">subsequently be ruled out for the rest of the season</a>. Despite the seriousness of the injury, Rodri still managed to enjoy the late equaliser by John Stones at the Etihad. According to<em> </em><a href="https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5799875/2024/09/28/arsenal-manchester-city-guardiola-arteta-war/" target="_blank"><em>The Athletic</em></a>, the Spain star managed to "celebrate raucously in front of the Arsenal bench" despite being forced off with an injury that has required surgery.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>The rivalry between the two sides appears to have ramped up several notches after the 2-2 draw at the Etihad. <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/john-stones-man-city-takes-swipe-arsenal-dirty-tactics-hero-scintillating-title-race-draw/blt9d8d330b2f9e72fa" target="_blank">Stones accused Arsenal of "dirty" tactics</a> after the match, while manager <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/pep-guardiola-man-city-drawn-intense-arsenal-rivalry-erling-haaland-gabriel/blte5f14c6fc5e14028" target="_blank">Pep Guardiola has claimed City have been provoked into a "war"</a> by the Gunners and <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/pep-guardiola-mikel-arteta-arsenal-2-2-draw-man-city/blt58701b41933b3048#csca6659fad9a8f805" target="_blank">has hit out at Mikel Arteta</a> after the Arsenal boss claimed he had inside information on the Cityzens.</p>
