Equality of situation after the first half.

Then Runar Runarsson represented a solid goalkeeper board as Manchester City eliminated Arsenal from the league cup.

– We all make mistakes. Now we have to support him, says Mikel Arteta after the match.

He does not want for Arsenal and Mikel Arteta.

The last time the team achieved a Premier League victory was on November 1 in the away game against Manchester United. After 14 rounds of the league game, the London club is now four points from relegation.

Now they are also eliminated from the league cup after 1-4 against Manchester City.

He boxed the ball in his own goal

City opened the scoring in the third minute of the game, but Arsenal would equalize. After half an hour of play, Alexandre Lacazette caught Gabriel Martinelli’s post with his forehead and nodded in the tie.

Here and there Arsenal were in the game, but at the beginning of the second half came the cold shower.

Icelandic goalkeeper Runar Runarsson, who had the opportunity between the posts, would score a free kick from Riyad Mahrez. Instead, he accidentally dropped the ball into his own net.

Four minutes later, another goal came from Manchester City, through Phil Foden, before defender Aymeric Laporte headed the final score 4-1 in the 73rd minute.

Thus, Manchester City, for the fourth consecutive year, goes to the semi-finals of the League Cup.

Additionally, the Brentford championship team, with Saman Ghoddos and Pontus Jansson in the squad, also defeated Newcastle 1-0.
