Manchester, United Kingdom: Santi Cazorla scored one goal and made another as Arsenal damaged Manchester City-s Premier League title challenge with a brilliant 2-0 victory at a chilly Etihad Stadium on Sunday.

The Spanish midfield scored a 24th-minute penalty and teed up Olivier Giroud for a second-half header to re-energise Arsene Wenger-s side-s push for a top-four finish, and maybe more. Victory avenged Arsenal-s crushing 6-3 loss on their last visit to this ground in December 2013 and left Manuel Pellegrini-s City five points adrift of leaders Chelsea, who they play at Stamford Bridge on January 31.
