Arsenal 2nd | Coventry City 16th (20)
With Aloisi and Whelan suspended, City play five across midfield to thwart Wenger’s men but lack punch up front. Kanu’s introduction creates gaps which Overmars exploits. On-loan striker Gioacchini from Venice gets 15 minutes of fame. Nilsson breaks two ribs and punctures a lung.
