Arsenal played host to Fulham at the Emirates, as the North London club were looking to pick their form up after a series of disappointing results in their recent fixtures in the league and Champions League.
The match kicked off with Fulham looking to create an early chance, but then managed to fall just short of the mark.
In the 11th minute, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Santi-Cazorla-c32505 went on to whip in a swinging corner which was met by the French international, who nodded the ball into the net.
Then in the 23rd minute, Arsenal doubled that lead. Arteta darted into the Fulham box and sent a low cross into the middle. Podolski met the cross and smashed the ball into the back of the net with the outside of his foot.
However, that two goal lead was short lived as Fulham got one goal back in the 29th minute. Ruiz went on to bend in a brilliant corner that beat almost every Arsenal defender. However, Berbatov judged the flight of the ball brilliantly and nodded
the ball into the back of the net with ease.
Before the half came to an end Fulham went on to level things up in the game. Berbatov turned into the provider this time around, as he found Kacaniklic with a brilliant cross. The Fulham player then guided his header into the far post, leaving the keeper
with no chance of keeping the ball out.
In the second half, Fulham took the lead in the 67th minute. The team was awarded a spot kick, and Berbatov made no mistake as he guided his penalty into the back of the net with ease.
Two minutes later Arsenal were back in it, as Giroud scored his second goal of the game. Walcott went on to bend in a brilliant cross which the Frenchman met, as he guided another header into the back of the net with ease.
In the last second of the game, Arsenal were awarded a penalty as they looked to have a shot at winning the game. Arteta stepped up to take the spot kick, only to see his effort get stopped by the keeper.
As a result, the match ended in a three all draw, as both teams shared the points in the game.
