Gotta love Owen Hargreaves for sinking the Gunners faint league title hopes with a wicked free kick that no one on Arsenal(save for maybe Robert van Persie, who made a half hearted jump) even made a move to block. That kick was the final of two second half goals for the Red Devils at Old Trafford as they overcame a 0-1 deficit for the victory.
It's true, the visitors did outplay Man U for large parts of the game, but both teams missed golden opportunities to score, and some good work from the goalkeeper and the defense is always essential to success; that part of the game isn't just luck, as Arsene Wenger trotted out the latest version of "we outplayed them, we were just unlucky, etc" for everyone afterward.
Also gotta love the fact that Arsenal's annoying goalie Jens Lehmann (RIGHT, NOT A BITTER MAN AT ALL), who declared earlier in the week that WERE HE IN GOAL, ARSENAL WOULD NOT HAVE LOST IN THE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE MATCH VS. LIVERPOOL just stood there with the rest of his teammates on the Hargreaves free kick.
The lovely, lovely goal, which made me laugh out loud for the first time since, errr, Tuesday I suppose, is linked below.
COULD RONALDO HAVE DONE ANY BETTER THAN THIS?
