Martin Keown says £26m Arsenal player has been ‘worth every penny’
Arsenal have gone level on points with Manchester City in the Premier League thanks to their 4-2 win over Leicester City on Saturday.
The Gunne♏rs were on the brink of losi🅠ng two points as the added-time minutes ticked by, but two very late goals ensured a healthy scoreline for the hosts.
Gabriel Martinelli opened the scoring for Arsenal in the 20th minute of the game when he finished off from Jurr𒐪ien Timber’s low delivery from the right.
Leandro Trossard then doubled their lead on the stroke of half-time, twisting his body a𓃲nd redirecting Marti𒆙nelli’s pass into the net.
However, Leicester rallied round as James Justin scored a brace, including a superb volley off the post, to st꧒un the Emirates St๊adium.
Then, in the 94th minute,꧙ a corner was swung in which Trossard k༺ept alive, and Wilfred Ndidi put the ball through his own net by mistake.
Arsenal got a fourth three minutes later as Gabriel J🍰esus 🗹broke with pace before the ball fell to Kai Havertz and trickled over the line, with VAR deeming it a goal.
