Arsenal's 2-2 draw against Manchester City saw Jurrien Timber and Kai Havertz make Premier League history with unprecedented statistics.
Arsenal's 2-2 draw with Manchester City was a dramatic affair that saw Jurrien Timber and Kai Havertz make Premier League history by not completing a single pass, despite playing for over 89 minutes.
This unprecedented occurrence marks the first time since Opta began collecting data that outfield players have featured for such a substantial portion of a match without completing a pass.
The match itself was thrilling, with Manchester City taking an early lead through Erling Haaland, who netted his 100th goal for the club in the 9th minute.
Arsenal responded strongly, with goals from Riccardo Calafiori and Gabriel turning the game around by halftime. However, a setback came just before the break when Leandro Trossard was sent off, leaving Arsenal to face the second half with only ten men.
Despite the numerical disadvantage, Arsenal held firm until John Stones scored a dramatic equalizer in the 98th minute, sealing a 2-2 draw for Manchester City.
