Manchester City and Arsenal played to a stalemate at the Etihad Stadium on Sunday, with a goalless draw disappointing fans on both sides. Despite some promising moments, there was little excitement in terms of goalmouth action.
Gabriel Jesus missed some key opportunities for City, while Arsenal’s defense put in a solid performance to secure their second clean sheet against the reigning champions this season. Former Gunner Theo Walcott was among those unimpressed by the lack of intensity in the match, attributing it to players being lethargic following the international break.
However, Walcott did commend Arsenal for managing to get a result against a top team like City, even if they didn’t come away with a win. The draw sees both teams maintain their positions in the top half of the table, but both will likely be looking to improve on their performance in the coming weeks.
