It was assumed that a humiliating 5-1 loss to spurs would burst Arsenal's bubble , but that was not to happen. The gunners have strode to an entertaining 3-0 victory over the magpies in the 4th round of the FA cup with Emmanuel Adebayor continuing his rich form.
The game started off at a balance , with both teams having considerable amounts of possession and being equally dangerous . Newcastle were displaying the slick one touch football that Kevin Keegan is known for. Arsenal, on the other end were fabulous ,with eduardo and adebayor causing problems for the newcastle defence. A flurry of shots followed by a flurry of saves explains the first half , with the defence of both sides managing to get the better of the offence. The first half did not display a superiority with both sides displaying their capabilities.
The second Half started off just as the first , but things got interesting. In five minutes Eduardo's shot smashed against the post , which left a free ball to be netted in by adebayor himself! After that , it was all arsenal. Brilliant defence denied arsenal a second , and from then on arsenal were barely in their own half. The dominant football displayed by the homeside was expressed by one more adebayor goal. To wrap it up , newcastle gifted arsenal an own goal which completed a good day for the gunners. They have bounced back from a heavy defeat and have sprung to life which allows them to proceed to the next round of the FA cup.
The question that will be surrounding the newcastle camp is known to all-Can they bounce back in the premier league fixture against the gunnerz? Can they do to the gunners what tottenham did? We shall find out in no more than 3 days.
Thank you
gunner!
