Arsenal vs. Wigan

2-0, Carling Cup, Emirates, 30/11 -10
Alcaraz 41 (og),
Bendtner 67

We never played truly convincing during the game, we created lots of chances but most of them were wasted, but nevertheless, we're in the semi finals!
Van Persie started this game, the first start for quite some time, and he did well, obviously he's not in top shape yet, but he had some great touches and free kicks during the game, so it looks like he's getting there!

The game started very slow, actually, it was pretty slow all through the 90 minutes, but we had some moments when we played great football and created lots of chances.
We deserved to go ahead before half time, even though it was a Wigan own goal, it was headed in by Alcaraz, from Theo's corner.

Our second goal was a bit better, van Persie started the attack by playing the ball wide to Vela, who's cross found Bendtner, and he managed to get it past the Wigan 'keeper.
So it wasn't our best game ever, but it was enough to get us into the last four in the league cup.

Injury update;
-no news as it is right now.
