Hull 1 ARSENAL 2

Arsenal beat Hull 2-1 in KC Stadium. Despite victory, Arsenal must wait till the injury time of second half to score the second goal. It was an even game, with Hull pressing everytime Arsenal held the ball, Arsenal didn't have much room to improve. However, Arsenal score the first goal after Andrey Arshavin beat 2 defenders and smashed the ball into Boaz Myhill's goal. 0-1 for Arsenal lead. Hull equalized after Jan Vennegoor brought down by Sol Campbell and the referee points the spot, Jimmy Bullard succesfully converted the penalty. 1-1. However, from the replay, it's clearly that before Jan Vennegoor brought down, he was in offside position, and the assistant didn't flag up! On the end of first half, George Boateng was sent off after getting second yellow card, and Hull must defended with ten players.

On the second half, Hull defended very well and looks like Arsenal wont able to score a goal. But, after Theo Walcott and Eduardo entered the fray, everything changed. Hull's defence looked more likely to be penetrated. Walcott's movement always worry the opposition team. Despite many chances, Arsenal still failed to score the goal until 90th minutes. Andrey Arshavin, Nicklas Bendtner, and Theo Walcott missed some good chances. On injury time, Denilson tried a long range shoot. The shot was blocked by Myhill, but Nicklas Bendtner took the rebound and scored the second goal. 1-2, Arsenal lead again. And Hull couldn't equalize again. It's Arsenal's victory


ARSENAL'S MOM:
