Arsenal vs. Newcastle

3-0, Premier League, Emirates Stadium, 28 April 2014
Koscielny 26,
Özil 42,
Giroud 66

We are now looking quite likely to finish at fourth, since Everton dropped more points this weekend.

This game was more or less sealed already in the first half, as we scored twice before the half-time whistle was blown. Santi Cazorla's free-kick was met by an on-rushing Laurent Koscielny, who got a foot to it and poked it into the back of the net for the first goal of the game! Towards the end of the half the second goal came, this one after some insane play around the box where Giroud had shots saved twice before the rebound fell to Mesut Özil, who tapped the ball into a more or less open net!

We looked convincing in the second half as well, and got the third and final goal midway through the half. Ramsey, back from injury and in terrific form yet again, passed the ball to Özil, who swung it into the box for Olivier Giroud to head past the 'keeper! Brilliant play and a brilliant goal!

With this win we are now one win away from securing the fourth spot and turning the focus to the FA Cup final!
