arsenal show their beautiful attacking football in the match, but with a little lack of luck, somehow adebayor only scored 1 when he has got 5 chances of passing the ball through van der sar. a controversial one, i didn't really see it but according to soccernet, he is suspicious of scoring the goal using his hand instead of his head. anyway, adebayor really have the killer instinct in front of goal. 26th goals a season is quite a number for the 24-year-old. then Ferdinand almost score an own goal when he gets a little wobbly clearing a cross from adebayor. United drew level just after 6 minutes which jens lehmann guess the correct direction of Ronaldo's penalty kick but failed to prevent it from going in. the penalty came from william gallas who found guilty of touching the ball by his hand in the penalty area. 38th goal in his 41th games. Ronaldo is simply on fire this season. everything is going right for him. Tevez then nearly finds the net only when he sees his effort go narrowly wide before the set piece specialist Owen Hargreaves scores a superb freekick from the edge of the box. that was a world class finishing, no goalkeeper on earth can save that kind of shot. however, even United was in front, arsenal men kept pushing their attack forward, hoping they might get their crucial goal to keep them in the title chase. but the United defensive line done a great job to protect their lead. experienced van der sar kept his cool to deny bendtner header which nearly cost a goal. the match ended following a yellow card to justin hoyte after some entertaining tricks from Ronaldo.
top quality football produced from both teams, but for my opinion arsenal perform slightly not to say worse but they didn't perform as good as they were at home against United. maybe the injuries are concerning them. the manager can only put on gilberto silva and desperately, song. i think thats the reason they fail to capture the 3 points from United. robin van persie didn't hand in a good performance too. eboue was good in this match, a lot of attacking approach made by him.
talking about United players, i will say a new star is shining ---Pique. the 21-year-old provided a solid defensive line along side with Ferdinand. although he might not as experienced as Vidic, but for a 21 years old player which barely play any premier league football he really done a great job. Wes Brown was too shaky in this match, for so many times he played against arsenal still he can't do his part right. disgraceful. we need someone like Gary Neville. Owen Hargreaves gave an eye-catching performance in the game. not only controlling the midfield steadily but gave a lot of chances to put United in front and finally scores the winning goal. Rooney was a little off-form in today's game. should have scored a goal but the goalkeeper keep denying him.
anyway, it's a narrow win over our rival but it's a great step to further increase our chance to lift the premier league trophy again this season. i believe the match United against Chelsea will be a decisive one.
