After keeping out Arsenal in the early part of the game, Leicester conceded the first goal as Gabriel Martinelli latched on to a low cross by Julien Timber.

The Gunners then went 2-0 up one minute into first half stoppage time as Justin’s header from a free kick came off Kai Havertz ended inside the net.

Justin then completed the comeback as he hit a one-time volley after connecting to a well floated cross from Ndidi.

The Gunners poured forward in search of the winning goal and got their reward in the 94th minute as Trossard’s strike from a corner kick by Saka was helped in by Ndidi to make it 3-2.

Then in the 99th minute Arsenal got their fourth goal thanks to Havertz who saw the ball come off his leg after a Leicester player tried to clear the ball, after his goalkeeper had initially stopped a Gabriel Jesus low shot.

The win saw Arsenal occupy third spot on 14 points, same points as second placed Manchester City who were held to a 1-1 draw by Newcastle United at St. James’ Park.
