Unlucky for both Arsenal and Chelsea!
Arsenal were pretty much dead and buried after Gibbs' slip gifted Park the away goal. After that it had to be caution to the wind and they were always looking vulnerable to the counter. A shame too, they made a pretty good start and looked sharp!
No idea what Almunia was up to for Ronaldo's free kick... how he didn't save that is beyond me. Straight, mid-height and to the near post, an easy save 9 times out of 10.
The 3rd goal was class though, great counter attacking move.
Van Persie's penalty was a peach, impossible to save!
As for Chelsea...
Well, I punched in Chelsea on my sat nav earlier and it said "2 minutes from Rome."![]()
