Arsenal vs. Birmingham

3-1, Premier League, Emirates, 17/10 -09
Van Persie 16,
Diaby 18,
Arshavin 85

It may not have been our best performance of the season, but we got the 3 points and were playing great football, at least in the first half.
We were in control the entire game, even when Birmingham made it 2-1 we were the ones that looked like scoring and had the best chances.
Van Persie opened the scoring with a similiar situation like the one against Blackburn, with a very well placed shot, Song provided the assist.
And Diaby followed up 2 minutes later with a delicious strike, Rosicky's cross came behind van Persie and too far in front of Walcott, but it found Diaby.

Then Arsenal had a defensive error that resolved in 2-1, Sebastian Larsson (former Arsenal player) prevented Mannone from reaching out to collect the ball and then it bounced to Lee Bowyer, who put the ball in the net.
And after that we losed our game a bit, but we managed to keep the score and with 5 minutes to go Cesc led the breakaway, he passed to Andrey who teased the defender and the shot us to 3-1.
