Leandro Trossard authored a stunning redemption story as Arsenal held off a valiant Leicester City side to secure a thrilling 4-2 victory at the Emirates Stadium.

Trossard then scored his first of the contest, finding the bottom corner with a slick first-time finish from Martinelli’s ball across, seemingly sealing Arsenal’s victory.

However, Justin’s incredible volley and earlier deflected free kick drew Leicester level, leaving Arsenal stunned.

Undeterred, Trossard poked home his second in added time, sending the Emirates into delirium, before Kai Havertz sealed the win with an insurance goal.

The victory marked a sweet redemption for Trossard, who was sent off in injury time against Manchester City last weekend.

Arsenal’s European campaign now takes center stage, with Paris Saint-Germain visiting the Emirates Stadium on Tuesday night for their second Champions League game.

Leicester City, sitting 16th, have a week to reflect on their positive performance before hosting Bournemouth next Saturday.
