Took the lead without having met the goal – Aftonbladet

It was completely Arsenal’s dominance in one half and zero shots on goal for Manchester United in 85 minutes.

Although it led the guests when the match 1-0 and could then decide by Wayne Rooney in the 2-1 victory with the team’s first shot on target.

I’m convinced it was the right decision from me to play with a trebackslinje. It was a quality decision from me, says United boss Louis van Gaal.

The former giant meeting in the Premier League had been transformed into a center meeting – but the prestige were still there when Manchester United visited Arsenal. A match that could only end in one way what it seemed at first.

The team’s 40th loss

Arsenal dominated the first half completely. Jack Wilshere burned a neutral and United got, as if that was not bad enough, left-back Luke Shaw damaged. The team’s 40th loss in Louis van Gaal’s four months in the club.

But after 56 minutes, everything changed.

Arsenal defender Kieran Gibbs went up in a dogfight that ended with him lowered his own goalkeeper Wojciech Szczęsny. When the two teammates was about to get up completed Antonio Valencia on the rebound and fired straight at Gibbs, who steered the ball into his own goal. We then had additionally Szczęsny go of hurt.

The Champions League spot

At that Manchester United are not yet languished in one trades on goal (against Arsenal’s eight). Something that stood all the way up to 85 minutes.

With the shot in the back could put United on defense and counter. Just such a staged Marouane Fellaini when he he gave Ángel Di María free rein. The Argentine then pass to Wayne Rooney who coolly chipped it in for 2-0. With United’s first trades on goal in the match.

– We dominated 80 percent of the game. Their goalkeeper was the plan the best player, it says it all. You must be efficient in the top matches but there is much positive to take with them. Defensively, we were somewhat naive, says Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger.

Olivier Giroud reduced but the home team

never catch up. Total Arsenal won the shots with 23-12, according to the Daily Mail, but United by 2-1. A victory that makes the team go about Arsenal to fourth place in the league giving the game in the Champions League.

– The entire team’s effort was awesome. From the goalkeeper to understudy why, says Ashley Young who replaced Shaw in the game.

Arsenal forced to also note that although midfielder Jack Wilshere was injured in the match.
