Arsenal had the most difficult home game this season deal with Milan at the Emirates Stadium on Tuesday (03/07/2012). This is because Arsenal have a tough task must be to reverse the scoring 5 goals aggregate win over Milan, after losing the first leg match 0-4 in the round of 16 before.
Arsenal was look impressive on first half by scoring 3 goals, Arsenal even less good in second half. Results 3-0 are not enough for the north londoners to go to the next phase in the Champions League after a 3-4 agregrat must defeat to AC Milan. But the spirit of arsenal players in this game deserve to be valued higher. Good game and scored 3 goals against a big team like Milan is not bad. This is a remarkable achievement when some of the pillars arsenal should had treatment due to injuries such as Mertesacker and Arteta. This spirit should be maintained to ensure to finish fourth in the ranking of the Barclay Premier league this season, or even if they can, ending this season in the third above the Spurs.
Arsenal goals in this match results from a Koscielny's heading, Rosicky's kick and a pinalty from RVP . An interesting game, especially in half I. Arsenal started the match with a relaxed and unburdened after assume this is an impossible mission. But Milan underestimated arsenal by lowering the starting eleven are not uncommon, while the arsenal can be said to play the best players. This makes Arsenal can more able to flow game up tremendously and produce 3 goals in first half.
Entering the second half, Arsenal that had nothing to lose to be overburdened must be add goals when they think there is an opportunity to reverse the situation and the opportunity to qualify for next round is open. But this is exactly what backfired so arsenal becomes overburdened and can not develop the best games in the second half. While maturity and calmness Milan players as well as the entry of several key players to the second half made Milan is getting better.
At this match Walcott had a little trouble on his feet and replaced Ju Young Park, after he clashed with Van Bommel. Hopefully Theo does not have a long break from the game, after Arsenal had to lose some players who entered the treatment room pillars injury. Replacement Oxlade chamberlain with Chamakh very ineffective. Chamakh rely more posture than speed. It is very easy anticipated to Milan defender. If Wenger will play 4 attackers, it would be better if pick Chamberlain for the attackers accompanied RVP than having to play Chamakh who have lost touch to make goals.
But whatever it is, Arsenal have played very well. Hopefully next season could be even better. Congratulations for the Gunners who had played incredible today. You're still the best!
