This was a fantastic display of high quality football. Gunners scored two quick goals to get the match into hands and after which we never saw any movement from the Rangers until the second half. Second half made Rangers to attack the ball and the players more. They were able to come in with good through balls and excellant passes without any success. The first goal was a by-product of a beautiful link up play between Fabregas, Arshavin and Wishere. Wilshere netted the first one. Second goal came with Eduardo placing a curving ball from right side of the box with a killer through ball from Merida. Third and final goal was from a pass constructed by Ramsey with the help of Sanchez Watt inside the box for Wilshere to finish.
We started with Song playing midfield with Fabregas, Wilshere and Merida. Later in the second half song moved to centre back with the substitution of Gallas. Once again Wilshere was the man of the match with all the great guys around him. Wilshere was seen as confident and brave to go past defenders and pass brilliantly constructed moves. He was instrumental in an attacking midfielder role. Eventhough he played as a Right winger today he was mostly involved in most of the moves. This kid is 17 and looks like will conquer England and Europe in couple of years time if everything goes well and he is safe from injuries.
Arsenal is showing good sign of growth and improvement. Will get to see one last time before the season starts in Valencia's home ground in Spain. Valencia will be a good test since they are always good at home and has a big squad to trouble our defenses. To come to the point...Emirates cup is home and in Arsenal's shelves once more. Hope to see and enjoy more attacking football by our great team. Keep cheering and thanks for the support.
Arsenal's Jack Wilshere was chosen as the Man of the Match in both of Arsenal's matches, and also the Emirates Player of the Tournament.
