What a Weekend...!!

I had a GOOD weekend and the climax of it was watching Arsenal draw with Chelsea at our impressive Emirates Stadium(Oh yes,I am a full-blooded Gunner).Now,I wont go on and on how we play arguably the best football in England with our one-two touches,slick passing and lightning-quick counter attack which should be an established knowledge by now.I would rather dwell on the significance of the match - to Chelsea and how their dreams were shattered into a million fragments.Chelsea made the short trip across London fully aware that only a win would keep them in the title race which in my opinion was a mirage after Manchester United had kept up the pressure with their derby win.As expected,Arsenal made Chelsea run around in circles with their brilliant movement and excellent passing - Diaby and Denilson both impressing.Two minutes to half-time,Bouhlarouz tugged Baptista in the box and the referee promptly pointed to the spot brandishing a straight red to the Chelsea defender.Captain of the day,Gilberto Silva stepped up and sent Cech the wrong way to put the Gunners in front.Gallas missed a good opportunity to extend the lead when he headed just wide before Essien equalised with a brave header.From this point,the game will have gone either way as Chelsea's desperation boiled over.Eventually,the match ended 1-1 which effectively meant the title had a new home in Old Trafford.I must admit I prefer this situation and here goes my congratulations to the new kings of the Premiership - The Red Devils
