Kevin de Bruyne vs Mikel Arteta – What happened?

Man City’s former assistant manager Arteta was trying to block a throw in, and De Bruyne, who scored the opener of the game, was not entertained with the Spanish coach’s act.

The Belgian star could be seen pushing and then pointed his finger to Arteta, but it was nothing more than that since the game was immediately back.

De Bruyne’s act sparked angers from the stands, as things were thrown at the Man City’s man upon him leaving the pitch when subbed off. Among the objects thrown was a bottle seemed to be full with water or soda inside, which could easily damaged the player.

@CliveTyldesley I believe you said in commentary they were chucking "harmless missiles" at De Bruyne.
Watch how the bottle hits the corner flag. It's quite obvious it's full. Had that hit him, it could've done serious damage.
Be nice if you apologised for your blasé take on it. pic.twitter.com/Wz5fI1P7br

Man City vs Arsenal result

De Bruyne could be all smiling, of course he could, as Man City beat Arsenal in the thrilling encounter as the reigning champions are now back on track to defend their throne.

Meanwhile, the Gunners had led the way since the third week of the season but were knocked off and have themselves to blame.

According to Opta stats, this is not good for Gunners’s fans:

3 – Tonight was only the third time in Premier League history that 2nd place beat 1st place in a match to overtake them in the table at least half-way into a season, after Chelsea v Man Utd (Apr 2010) & Man City v Man Utd (Apr 2012) – both of whom went on to win the title.
