THE TIGERS VISIT THE EMIRATE STADIUM.

On 27th of september Hull City visited Atsenal , and we were sure to see some good football. Arsenal played their usual quick neat anf fast passes , which are a delight to the eye.
But the Hull City are called the tigers , because of their colourof the jerseys they wearand they are also striped like tigers.
But one thing was sure Mr Brown the Hull manager had done his homework . He kept one striker in front and the other ten had to stay back and defend with their lives . It got crowded in the box with Hull and Arsenal players trying for a goal. The opener came from a own goal scored by McShane. But then the crowd were in for some beautiful football by the Brazilian Geovani who scored wih a twentyeight yard cannon ball kick which beat the Arsenal goalkeeper. And in the dying minutes of the second half as Arsenal are always vulnerable to corners and spot kicks , Hull scored the winner with a header to a corner kick . The Match ended 2-1. Arsenal were mauled and lost for the second time only at the Emirate Stadium.Last team to beat Arsenal atthe Emirate stadium was West Ham.
