City was held to a 0-0 draw by a resilient Arsenal side that ended City’s run of scoring in its last 57 home games in all competitions.
In a game of few chances City came closest to finding a winner when Nathan Ake headed straight at goalkeeper David Raya from a corner. In contrast, Arsenal’s best opportunities came from former City striker Gabriel Jesus, who twice fired wide in the first half and was close to connecting from close range after the break.
