2-1, Emirates Cup, Pre-season, Emirates, 1/8 -09
Arshavin 86, 90
Arsenal began this year's Emirates Cup with a tough win over Atletico, but much deserved.
It was Tomas Rosicky's first game at Emirates for quite som time, so it felt nice to make it with a win, even if the credit shall go to Andrey.
The first 45 minutes was not very eventful, but at halftime young Wilshere was brought on, and he started to crack the spanish defence open starting with some great passes.
But the kick that Arsenal needed came when Bendtner, van Persie and Ramsey was replaced by Fabregas, Eduardo and Arshavin in the 66th minute.
Twenty minutes after the change Fabregas sent a great ball over to Andrey, who thundered in 1-0, and since it was only 4 minutes + injury time left, everybody thought it was pretty much over, but that isn't really what happened.
With 1 minute + injury time left German Pacheco got the equalizer, and everbody started to settle for a draw, except one little Russian, who picked up a bad header and runned past the goalkeeper, and managed to give Arsenal the winner in injury time.
After this game Arsenal was leading the table with 5 points over Rangers 4 points they got after their 1-0 win over PSG.
