Manchester City fans couldn't help but express their annoyance after Arsenal came from behind to defeat Bournemouth and extend their lead over Pep Guardiola's side in the Premier League table.
Mikel Arteta's men were trailing 2-0 until the 62nd minute, with the away side having gone in front inside the opening 10 seconds of the clash at the Emirates. The Cherries then doubled their lead after the half-time break, but the Gunners pulled a goal back just five minutes later.
The London outfit then levelled proceedings in the 70th minute through Ben White, before scoring a dramatic winner through substitute Reiss Nelson deep into stoppage time. With City having won at home to Newcastle earlier in the day, Arsenal were under immense pressure to get a win.

Despite leaving it late to secure all three points, Arteta's side restored their five-point advantage over Guardiola's side, who cruised to a 2-0 victory over the Magpies in the early kick-off thanks to goals from Phil Foden and Bernardo Silva.
It appeared that City were going to be within touching distance of Arsenal, but Nelson's late strike came as a major blow to Blues fans, with many unhappy about the Gunners scoring in the seventh minute of added time despite the officials only giving six.
