Premier League review: Arsenal beat Chelsea in eight-goal thriller


 

A hat-trick by striker Robin van Persie helped Arsenal secure a victory against Chelsea in an incredible match at Stamford Bridge. Van Persie has now scored an incredible 28 goals in 27 Premier League games for Arsenal and ensures that the Gunners continue their recovery after a poor start to their Premier เว็บดูบอลพรีเมียร์ลีก while Chelsea fell in their second consecutive loss in the Premier League and their third defeat of the season. .


Chelsea captain John Terry had a mixed afternoon scoring a goal to give Chelsea a 2-1 lead just before halftime, but then accidentally slipped to gift Van Persie with a goal that gave Arsenal an advantage. late and impregnable.


Chelsea took the early lead by scoring after 14 minutes when Frank Lampard scored with a header, this followed several attempts by the Blues where they could have taken an early lead. Van Persie scored his first goal of the afternoon to bring Arsenal back into the game, but it was Terry who gave the Blues a 2-1 lead just before halftime.


Arsenal came back for the second half with a renewed determination that had sadly been lacking at the start of the season, Andre Santos tied and then Theo Walcott scored for the visitors ten minutes into the restart to give the Gunners a 3-2 lead. With time running out Juan Mata scored a spectacular goal for Chelsea to tie the score at 3-3 with ten minutes remaining.


With the home team on the rise, it seemed likely Chelsea would secure the three points, before Terry's slip that allowed Van Persie to run clean and score in the 85th minute, as the Blues advanced in numbers in search of another draw, they found. They fell short of numbers on defense when Van Persie was free again to complete his hat trick and secure victory for Arsenal, who have now won eight of their previous nine games.


There could have been more goals in the match in which both teams felt embarrassed by their defensive weaknesses, which will be a concern for both coaches if either team wants to make a serious title challenge this season.


Fernando Torres returned for the Blues after completing a three-game suspension and was unlucky not to score in the opening moments, while the impressive Walcott provided two crosses that could have seen his team take an early lead. Arsenal, who took an 8-2 beating from Manchester United just a few weeks ago, seemed full of confidence, creativity and a confidence that could make them true title contenders.
