Adebayor comes back to haunt Gunners
Emmanuel Adebayor had the last laugh on Arsenal as he scored the decisive third goal in a pulsating encounter from which Manchester City emerged with a 4-2 win and their 100% record intact.
Two weeks after dominating at Old Trafford, yet finishing on the losing side against Manchester United, Arsene Wenger experienced similar emotions on the blue half of the city after a staggering contest where for long periods, they appeared the most likely winner.
City went ahead when Micah Richards' header cannoned in off goalkeeper Manuel Almunia but Arsenal levelled when Tomas Rosicky collected Bacary Sagna's short pass and fed the ball calmly through to Robin Van Persie.
Joleon Lescott lunged in despairingly, but Van Persie simply skipped past the £22million man and drove a precise shot into the bottom corner.
Richards then cut inside Alexandre Song after receiving Shaun Wright-Phillips' pass and found Craig Bellamy, who swept home.
Adebayor then headed in a third and raced the full length of the field to celebrate right in front of the Arsenal fans before Wright-Phillips stretched their lead before Rosicky pulled one back and van Persie hit a post.
