Arsenal controlled the game from the outset, denying Leicester any meaningful possession. They pressed high, with Calafiori and Timber joining Partey just outside the box. Despite intricate passing and attempts from Rice, Martinelli missed a clear chance early on.

A clever passing move freed Timber, whose low cross found Martinelli to score the opener. Arsenal’s fluid positioning and relentless pressure led to a second goal by Trossard just before halftime.
