Key Events:

• Aguero scores an offside goal
• Aguero scores a penalty
• Both Arsenal goals come from set pieces
• Game goes to extra time
• Ospina saves 2 penalties
• Late Manchester City red card

Arsenal

The Good

• Aaron Ramsey returns from injury and is available for selection (hopefully)
• You literally can win any final in which Ramsey is playing (FA cups final winners scored by Ramsey, remember?)
• Key players fit: Ozil, Mkhi, Auba, Ramsey all fit. Combo wombo team that can score wonder goals if they click
• Wembley effect: Arsenal have a cool win record in Wembley. Successful cup wins and beating Tottenham were welcome results

The Bad

• Arsenal have displayed horrible form in some of the past matches, not turning up for matches, defensive errors to name a few
• Super shaky defense even when the team is winning

Manchester City

The Good

• Kevin De Bruyne
• Aguero
• Pep's bald head
• Goal scoring juggernaut

The Bad

• Pep's bald head
• No fans to fill the stadium
• *Sometimes* shaky defense
