Manchester City canter up the field, Leroy Sane has space on the left corner of the box and squares it to Bernardo, who is arriving from the opposite corner. Precision, curling finish into the top corner beats a flying Petr Cech and makes Arsenal’s mountain a little higher.

Manchester City have again mauled woeful Arsenal 3-0 at the Emirate Stadium to extend lead at the top by 16 points.
City had last Sunday pounce Arsenal 3-0 at the Wembley Stadium to win the Carabao Cup.
At the Emirate Stadium, Arsenal were expected to pose serious resistance to City since they were playing at home, but the ragged team disappointed once more as the visitor scores three goals in the first half.
Bernardo Silva opened scoring for City in the 15th minute of the game.
David Silva made it 2-0 on 27th minute. Breathtaking, lightning, sweeping attacking play by City results in the second goal. David Silva starts it all, into Leroy Sane, who finds Sergio Aguero to lay the ball back to Silva, who finished clinically.

Leroy Sane ended Arsenal’s hope of come back when he made it 3-0 on 33 minutes despite booing from Arsenal fans.
Sane gets the goal he deserves, finishing another sweeping move. So much space behind the Arsenal defence, Kyle Walker puts the ball across the face of goal and Sane gets there ahead of Hector Bellerin to slot home the third goal.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang had a chance to score a consolation goal for Arsenal as he missed a penalty kick on 52 minutes of the game.
