However, this result makes getting away from Chelsea with 49 points. Despite the defeat, Newcastle was moved from the sixth position with 44 points.
Arsenal conceded first that the fact that Arsene Wenger could create tension throughout the game. Although the pace Arsenal lasted only one minute. Arsene just jumped for joy as she hugged each other after a dramatic Vermaelen scored a minute before the final whistle is blown.
Ben Arfa made his goal stunned the Emirates Stadium. With his left foot goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny it from a tight angle as well. Goals that stems from an error in the Arsenal midfield passing the ball.
However, Emirates is not made public a long time to mourn. Arfa goal a minute after the turn of the star, Robin Van Persie to make the stadium roared. Theo Walcott's cross is kicked well by Van Persie a goal in minute 15.

Another Arsenal game, and another goal from Van Persie. The man is prolific this season and just seems to be scoring for fun. What was even more impressive was the fact that this was another come from back win for Arsenal. They are now making an habit of this. I like this attitude of the team.
Now they are within touching distance of Tottenham and that would be a great finish for them if they can finish in third ahead of the Spurs.
Cheers!

For the 4th consecutive games, the Gunners got to come from behind to win the game. This is a new Premier League record. While it shows their character and refusal to accept defeat, it is not good for the hearts of the Arsenal fans. As for the race to the top 4 position, they have managed to claw the deficit from 10 to 1 point. Honestly, their season is now over and the only remaining objective is to clinch third position and the final automatic champions league spot.
