    Space opening up for City now. Kevin de Bruyne almost nips into one.

    Aaron Ramsdale again! Kevin de Bruyne drops in a corner to the near post and Rodri heads it towards goal but Ramsdale claws it away.

    Arsenal 0-1 Man City

    Brilliant save from Aaron Ramsdale to deny Phil Foden and stop City wrapping this up.

    Julian Alvarez takes advantage of some questionable defending to burst towards the box. He feeds Foden, who slots the ball through Ramsdale's legs but it hits his thigh and goes wide.

    Arsenal bring off debutant Declan Rice and Eddie Nketiah comes on. A striker for a defensive midfielder.

    What a brilliant finish from the young lad, the best moment of the game so far.

    Perfect technique from the 21-year-old. His fifth senior goal.

    If that is to be the winner, then what a goal to seal the first piece of silverware of the season.

    From the moment Cole Palmer shaped to shoot you knew it as curling into the back of the net, stunning strike.

    Pep Guardiola bounced around in celebration as his side close in on a fourth trophy of 2023.

    Just a little move to his left, right foot to left foot, the keeper was fully stretched and it is a brilliant finish.

    Cole Palmer

    What a goal!!

    Kevin de Bruyne heads the ball onto City youngster Cole Palmer, who takes a couple of touches and finds himself near the corner of the box. He bends a beautiful shot into the top corner, leaving Aaron Ramsdale with no chance.

    Havertz isn't terrible. City aren't the best team in the world. This match is rubbish. Three observations from a neutral.

    Dave, Dunblane

    Loving all the points about how Arsenal/City players are performing and how the season will pan out as a consequence. It's a friendly that neither team really cares about.

    Another good block by Jurrien Timber, this time to stop Kyle Walker's cross.

    Another City corner.

    De Bruyne is so good at finding space. His decision making and weight of pass are so good.
