Disappointment for Arsenal

After a sensational win against Cardiff, Arsenal suffered a setback with a draw against Sunderland. Arshavin was given his debut that day.

No 23 Arshavin started the match , testing the Sunderland keeper early with a volley from 40 yards, but the shot went wide. He then started a flurry of passes to keep the game alive. He went close to scoring but Palop stopped his kick.

Soon Arsenal missed many chances, and the half time the score 0-0. Arshavin was soon removed and Vela was brought in. Bendtner and Vela soon squandered chances like crazy, thus Sunderland walked away with a point.
