Arsenal late show denies Man City, Villa still winless

LONDON: Gabriel Martinelli’s 93rd minute equalizer saved Arsenal’s Premier League title bid from a damaging defeat to Manchester City, while Aston Villa remain winless after a limp 1-1 draw at 10-man Sunderland. The Gunners were heading to a second defeat in five Premier League games due to Erling Haaland’s early strike on the counter-attack for City. Martinelli came off the bench to score for the second time in a week to salvage a 1-1 draw, but both sides lost more ground to Premier League leaders Liverpool. Arsenal went second, five points behind the champions, while City are eight points off the top in ninth. “Very disappointed not to win,” said Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta said.
