Match comments

1st half

Starting of the game.we really dominated the game.Boro had some possession,but it was clearly shown that we controlled the game,with many dangerous attempts.

But it was Boro scored first with their great counter-attack,although it was quite controversial since the goal could be offside.But it was great goal anyway,and I wish we could score goals like this.

At 28th minute,Persie fired a cross but it just went out without contact with other players.I think Persie should shot the ball into the goal,since he's in the penalty box.

At 32nd minute,Eboue was held down in penalty box,but no penalty was given.Gunnners kept the possession well but they can't find an equaliser.

2nd half

Again,we kept the possession well.

At 47th minute,Persie fired a shot but it just went wide.

At 50th minute,Gallas attempt to score an equaliser failed when his header was way our of goal.But it was offside anyway.

Gunnners made double substitution.Persie was substituted by Walcott,and Sagna was substituted by Bendtner.Gunners tried to increase their attacking forces.

Fabregas got a really good chance to equalise at 65th minute when it was said to be one-to-one situation.But his shot was blocked by the goalkeeper's leg,increasing Gooners' frustration.

Fabregas tried an header at 73rd minute,but it somewhat slightly off-target.

The equaliser came at 85th minute,when Toure's header can't be saved by the goalkeeper,and credits should be given to the defender beside him,because he obstructed the goalkeeper.

Gunners's attack came in every second,but they failed to get three points in Emirates.

Comments on this game

I started to wonder why Gallas and Toure played just as they're the striker.They should focus more on their main task,that is to defend.Even they're bored to defend against Boro strikers,they should not too aggressive to attack.Leave these jobs to Adebayor and Persie.

It's very hard to score against a defending team,and our game story was just same like our game against Aston Villa a week ago.A sudden goal,then Gunners attacked like mad,and they got the equaliser.But they just can't get all the three points.
