Theo Walcott and Olivier Giroud scored the goals in the first period as the Gunners claimed all three points against Manuel Pellegrini's men
Arsenal moved two points behind Premier League leaders Leicester with a well-deserved 2-1 victory over Manchester City at the Emirates.
After an opening 35 minutes lacking in attacking intent, Arsenal sensationally took the lead when Theo Walcott curled magnificently past Joe Hart.
On the stroke of half-time, and with only their second shot of the game, the Gunners doubled their lead, when Mesut Ozil's pass was drilled through the legs of Hart by French striker Olivier Giroud.
City pushed on in the second half and a late strike from Yaya Toure got them back into the game, but Manuel Pellegrini's men couldn't claim an even later leveller.
