After suffering last-gasp heartache last weekend, we enjoyed the spoils of a late win as injury time strikes from Leandro Trossard and Kai Havertz beat Leicester City in a six-goal thriller.
Gabriel Martinelli grabbed his first Gunners goal for six months when he netted after 19 minutes, and just before the half-time whistle he set up Trossard to double our lead as the winger atoned for his red card last weekend at Manchester City.
However within a minute of the second half starting James Justin saw a deflected header find the net, and on 63 minutes the right-back connected with a superb volley to pull his side level.
An incredible goalkeeping performance by Mads Hermansen saw him make save after save as it seemed his team would escape with a point, but Trossard managed to bundle the ball home to claim all three points before Havertz netted after a counter-attack to round off a crazy afternoon of football.
Arsenal started the first half really solid, their ball possession stats in the first half was incredible. The foxes hardly had the ball on their feet in the first half because the Gunners all along in the first half were in their half painstakingly trying to force out a goal. Luck however smiled at the Gunners side when Martinelli converted a one time low cross from Jurrien Timber. Glad Martinelli coverted his chance and one could see the happiness he had scoring when he celebrated his goal . Martinelli is one player Arsenal fans are hoping he gets his form back as soon as possible . Hopefully now that he has his first goal of the season his confidence can get built from there progressing into the season.
Leo Trossard is another player that has been consistent in coming to the rescue for the Arsenal team with his goal scoring abilities. He got the second goal for Arsenal in the first half which looked like Arsenal were going to have a convenient ride against the foxes.
Football is indeed a beautiful and intriguing game , very unpredictable too. Leicester came into the second half with another entirely different momentum from the one they had in the first half . Before the 65th minute the foxes already equalized courtesy of a James Justin brace, his second goal was a stunner a goal of the season contender as a matter of fact. At this juncture I knew the Gunners strength will be tested.
Glad the Gunners were able to turn the match around with a last gasp winner from a corner setpiece the Gunners are notorious for.
