Finally Arsenal..

Finally Arsenal's undefeated streak this season came to an end. The match was a disappointing one for the league leaders as many key players were not on the pitch. This showed that how important role does Flamini, Fabrigas, Van Persie and Hleb play in the team. Though Rosisky was there in the team, he was just able to draw a late consolation goal and there was no time for equalizer. Middlesbrough however is to be appreciated which was in the relegation zone just before defeating the league leader.

The match was a good one especially Walcott's run in the dying minutes. Had there been Ronaldo of Manchester United, he would have deliberately tripped on to the tackle to earn a penalty but not Walcot. Well played Walcot. There is a lot to be learned from such footballers by Christiano Ronaldo. Watching football is always fun and when it comes to football norms and ethics, the drama and acting from players like Ronaldo, Evra and Anderson (all from Manchester United) make it an irritating one.

All in all the champs were defeated, but one has to lose. But they still top the table with one point.
