ARSENAL VERSES STOKE CITY.

Arsenal visited Stoke City at their famous Britania stadium. They came knowing very well that it would be a tough match. As Stoke are a tough team to play against. And Arsenal are known to be nervous in the first twenty odd minutes. And history repeated it self all over again. Stoke had Rory Delap and his famous long throws to cause heaps of problems for Arsenal.In the 15th minute a long Rory Delap throw took a wicked bounce and Pugh was clear to head the ball in for the goal. Arsenal then settled down and did their passing , it was only a matter of time before arsenal would get the goal. It came from a Fabregas kick conectted by a Betdner header beating Sorenson. In the second half Arsenal got a penalty as the ball hit a Stoke City players hand in the box and fabregas scored the penalty. Then the game took a sad turn when the young Welsh midfielder Aaron Ramsey broke his leg by a Shawcross tackle. but what was suprising is That he is not known for bad a wild tackles, and there is talk that Capello will call him for the friendly with Egypt. There was still time for Arsenal to score a third goal. Bedtner unselfishley centred the ball for Thomas Vermalleen to score the third. This now makes Vermalleen to bevcome the top deffende to score goals in the E.P.L . this year.
