Aaron Ramsey puts Arsenal 2-0 ahead of Manchester City

by Kim McCauley

This isn't going well for Manchester City. Arsenal lead 2-0 in the first half, thanks to Aaron Ramsey.

The goal came at the end of a gorgeous counter-attack, mainly engineered by Alexis Sanchez. After Arsenal were able to clear the ball out to the left flank. Sanchez carried the ball forward most of the length of the pitch before finding Yaya Sanogo, who spotted Ramsey. His run into the box wasn't spotted soon enough by City, and his finish was excellent.

City are playing Dedryck Boyata instead of Vincent Kompany in defense today, and it shows.
