Ricardo Calafiorio, who got the start over Ben White with Jurrien Timber moving to right back, rifled the ball into the top corner to cancel out Erling Haaland's opener.
Immediately following the goal, Manchester City's players surrounded the referee Michael Oliver, with Ederson being booked for his troubles.
According to Gary Neville, the Manchester City players were complaining due to the fact that a free kick in the build up to the goal was taken ten yards from where the referee had given it.
Kyle Walker in particular appeared to be caught out by the free kick, with him rushing back to try and make up the ground.
The free kick in question saw a beautiful ball lobbed over Walker's head to play Gabriel Martinelli into space, before the Brazilian laid it off for Calafiori to stroke it into the top corner.
An Arsenal fan account posted the goal saying: "CALAFIORI ON HIS FIRST ARSENAL START!!!
