Pep Guardiola kicks chair in furious outburst after Riccardo Calafiori wondergoal as Man City caught out by quick free-kick against Arsenal moments after Rodri injury blow

A quick Arsenal free-kick found Gabriel Martinelli on the left flank, and the Brazilian then set up a perfect ball for Riccardo Calafiori on the edge of the box for something truly special. The Italian defender scored his maiden Gunners goal with a thunderous strike to cancel out Erling Haaland's record-equalling opening goal, sending the visiting fans into raptures.

The City players vehemently protested the quick free-kick while Pep Guardiola was seen fuming on the touchline as he kicked his chair in the dugout in a state of rage. Kyle Walker was out of position when the ball was played because he was talking to referee Michael Oliver. To rub salt in City's wounds, the equaliser came minutes after Rodri was forced to leave the pitch after suffering a horror injury.

At the stroke of half-time, Gabriel Magalhaes converted a header from Bukayo Saka's swinging corner as he scored in his second consecutive Premier League match and handed his side the lead.

Just minutes before the half-time whistle, Leandro Trossard was sent off for second bookable offence, which left Arsenal with just ten men for the second half. When the dust settles on a feisty clash at the Etihad, both teams will look ahead to their first Carabao Cup games of the season against Watford and Bolton, respectively.
