Arsenal 4-2 Leicester: Last-gasp double seals Gunners 3 pts, Trossard nets brace

WILFRED NDIDI'S unlucky own goal gave Arsenal a dramatic injury-time winner over Leicester.

Match Report

Arsenal looked in total control as Gabriel Martinelli turned home on 20 minutes.

Leandro Trossard then found the net in first-half injury time as the Gunners led 2-0 at the break.

But within two minutes of the restart, Justin's header deflected past David Raya to half the deficit.

And on 63 minutes, the right-back got Leicester level in style.

He latched on to a deep cross and leathered an emphatic volley in off the post to salvage a point - as Arsenal were pegged back to 2-2 for the second game running.

However, Trossard got on the end of a corner to the back post and fired across goal.

And the ball bounced off Ndidi's leg and past a helpless Mads Hermansen, who had played brilliantly throughout with a string of saves.

Then there was still time for Kai Havertz to pounce and grab a fourth to seal the points.
