What Ederson did to frustrate Arsenal supporters in Manchester City defeat

Arsenal lost further grip on the Premier League title last night with a damning 4-1 defeat to second-placed Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium.

The Gunners were second best in all areas of the pitch in Manchester and paid the price. Kevin De Bruyne produced yet another world class performance against Mikel Arteta's side with two goals and an assist, with Erling Haaland scoring goal number 49 of the season.

Wednesday's game was widely touted as the 'final' of the 2022/23 Premier League season, with the winner tipped to go and win the title. And following City's rout, the reigning champions are 92% likely to retain their title.

Haaland's goal in the fifth minute of injury time was the final nail in the coffin and was the cue for many of the thousands Arsenal supporters to exit the stadium and make their way back to the capital.

However, the ones that decided to stay until the end were on the receiving end of some trolling for Man City goalkeeper Ederson. Footage has emerged of the Brazilian shot-stopper making hand gestures, insisting with his fists that the Gunners supporters were crying.
