Rodri Scores 93rd Minute Winner And Celebrates Wildly In Front Of Arsenal Fans

He didn't hold back.

Manchester City midfielder Rodri celebrated a dramatic 93rd-minute winner against Arsenal by celebrating in front of the home fans.

It was a controversial game, to say the least. Mikel Arteta's side impressed in the opening half and after a spell of dominance, the Gunners went 1-0 thanks to a great goal from Bukayo Saka.

But things took a turn after the break when Bernardo Silva won a debatable penalty after being brought down by Granit Xhaka. Do you think it was the right call?

Referee Stuart Attwell overturned his initial decision, handed Arsenal centre-back Gabriel a yellow card for scuffing the penalty spot and Riyad Mahrez cooly converted from 12 yards to make it 1-1.

Moments later, Gabriel was sent off for colliding with Gabriel Jesus and well, the game was City's for the taking.

And Pep Guardiola's side did exactly that in injury time when Rodri poked home from close range before celebrating in front of the Arsenal support with his shirt aloft. It's fair to say he didn't hold back, here.

As you can see in the footage below, toilet rolls and bottles were thrown at Rodri and his Manchester City teammates as they celebrated the dramatic winner.

Thoughts on the game?

Let us know in the comments.
