Arsenal conjure stoppage-time double to thwart Leicester comeback

Today at 12:24 PM

For Arsenal, it had to be from a corner and, after the week that had gone, it had to be Leandro Trossard. The fall-out from last Sunday's explosive 2-2 draw at Manchester City had raged, a prominent talking point, the moment that shaped Arsenal's no-frills resistance being Trossard's second yellow for kicking the ball away. Here, he rescued his team.

It looked like being a story of Arsenal throwing away two points. That, and a sensational second-half goalscoring cameo by the Leicester right-back, James Justin, plus the defiance of the goalkeeper, Mads Hermansen. Having made it 2-1 with a deflected header, Justin produced a volley of irresistible sweetness to equalise. Arsenal's total dominance of the first half looked set to count for nothing, especially as they could not find a way back through in regulation time.
