However, the striker's shot was saved by Arsenal goalkeeper Bernd Leno, who was quick off his line to close down the angle.

A quick counter-attack from the Gunners saw Martin Odegaard play a through ball to Martinelli, who coolly slotted the ball past Schmeichel to give Arsenal the lead. Leicester City tried to respond quickly, and came close to equalizing in the 45th minute when Youri Tielemans' shot from outside the box hit the crossbar. The second half started with Leicester City pushing forward in search of an equalizer.

Martinelli's goal was a timely reminder of the young Brazilian's talent and potential. The 19-year-old has struggled with injuries this season, but showed his quality with a clinical finish to give Arsenal the lead. The Gunners will be hoping that Martinelli can continue to produce such performances in the coming weeks as they look to secure a place in the top six and qualify for European competition next season. Leicester City, on the other hand, will be disappointed with the result, but can take heart from their overall performance. The Foxes created several good chances and dominated possession for large periods of the game, but were unable to convert their chances. The defeat sees Leicester City miss the chance to put pressure on Manchester United, who are currently in second place. The Foxes will need to bounce back quickly if they are to maintain their position in the top four. Overall, it was an entertaining game of football, with both teams playing their part in an end-to-end encounter.
