Who said Arsenal cannot score?? They can, with style and when required !!!
That is exactly what happenend against Newcastle. The Arsenal side, rejuvinated by comebacks were given an early blow when they realised Walcott would be out for the month. So Wenger made some change and brought in Diaby.
Arshavin made a lot of difference in the first half, but Arsenal could not take their opportunities and missed really good chances. But relegation threatened Newcastle had a wonderful chance when Almunia pushed Martins in the box to gift them a penalty. But he held his nerve as Martins pushed the ball weakly to Almunia's left and the Spanish goalkeeper made an easy save. Other than that Newcastle were fairly quiet. But Nasri's unlucky misses and van Persie's dreadful finishes kept the score level at half time.
But the match sprung into life in the second half. Arshavin took a brilliant freekick and singled out Bendtner who took his chance to head it past Harper to give the Gunners the lead. But barely half a minute later, Newcastle attacked, and Martins took advantage of a Gallas error to frce the ball past a stunned Almunia.
But Arsenal werent done yet. Steven Taylor had been the mainstay of the Magpies defence and had denied the Gunners any goals. When he went off injured, Diaby took his chance by playing a one two with Persie by finding the space required and slotting the ball above Harper. Nasri made it 3-1 when his brilliant quick finish went beyond Harper.
All in All Arsenal played brilliant and we deserved our win!!!
