Arsenal celebrated their 125th Anniversary in style as Robin Van Persie scored a wonder goal. Chances from Walcott, Gervinho and Ramsey could have put The Gunners 1-0 up! On 70 minutes, Song chipped the ball over the Toffee defenders and Van Persie scored a volley very similar to the one he scored against Charlton in 2006.
Last night for the first time in 5 years, Barcelona were the underdogs. And it showed when a big mistake from Víctor Valdes gave Madrid the lead on 23 seconds! (The fastest La Liga goal ever!) The Catalans responded when Alexis Sanchez scored a great goal on 40 minutes. An own goal from Marcelo and a great header from Fabregas sealed the win for Barca.
Fergie's Utd went out of the Champions League and into the Europa League for the first time since 2005 when they got defeated by the Swiss Champions. Goals from Streller and Frei seed out the victory for Basel despite a late consolation goal from Phil Jones.
Manchester City went out of the Champions League last night, but they went out fighting! Despite winning against 2009 Champions League finalist's, they went out needing Napoli to lose against Villarreal. The Spanish side did not succeed. Goals from Silva and Yaya Touré gave City hope. But it didn't come.
Arsene Wenger put out a weakened side when they met Olympiacos at the Karaiskakis Stadium. First half goals from Djebbour and Fuster put The Greeks 2-0 up. Then a terrific volley from Yossi Benayoun reduced the deficit to 1 goal. But in the 89th minute Modesto scored into the empty net after it hit the post.
Phil Jones scored his first senior goal in football when The Red Devils played The Claret & Blue at Villa Park. A great volley from the new Man Utd defender. Shay Given went off injured in the first half. Guzan came on as his replacement. A header from James Collins in the second half tested Man Utd, but they were always in control.
