Match highlights video of the game including no less than eight goals, including two penalties.
A perfect start by Arsenal with four straight goals in the first half. Then, a complete reversal of fortune. Arsenal implode after Diaby is sent off after reacting furiously to an agricultural Joey Barton tackle. Arsenal then lose their head inspiring a magnificent fightback by the Magpies to level all four goals by the final whistle. Leon Best also has what looks to be a perfectly good goal for offside too!
Goals by Theo Walcott, Johan Djourou, Robin van Persie (2), Joey Barton (2 penalties) Leon Best, and finally, a magnificent volley from Cheik Tiote.
Newcastle manager, Alan Pardew, salutes the “balls” displayed in a magnificent fightback by his troops. He also praises the fans for their patience throgh what was a very rocky first half.
Joey says he’s actually disappointed not to win the game in the end. He also speaks of “what a funny old game” football is, and how the lads were “lifted” by the sending off of Diaby in the 50th minute. He also describes himself as being “in shock” at the level of Arsenal’s collapse in the second half.
Arsenal manager, Arsene Wenger, quietly fumes, studiously avoiding saying anything controversial about referee, Phil Dowd’s decisions in the wake of his controversial statements after Arsenal’s last game. He dusts down his “I didn’t see the incident” in relation to the Diaby sending off and keeps repeating that his opinion is not important.
Why cliches (about Arsene)? Guess not so creative. If Barton is your leader then you’ve really reached bottom. I remember when Shearer was your leader. I’m an Arsenal supporter and I like Newcastle fans. Team – not so much right now. Kinda Bolton with Sam. If you’re pleased with your rednecks – okay. But I thought Newcastle had different football values. Not gonna say “well done”, btw. Referee made it disgusting to watch.
