A late night in Mumbai , India, and the inception of a coveted weekend. Putting on my Arsenal shirt, and a drink fixed in my hands, hoping for a good start to the premier league, I sat in my couch like a flushed potato, ready to ride the emotional roller coaster which awaited my ass print.
The game started, and our brand new signing Laca, with his second touch of the ball, and the first from his head, puts the ball past Schmeichel inside 2 minutes of the new campaign. Ecstatic , I started dancing,and singing "1-0 to the Arsenal", but the good times as they say were ephemeral, and Leicester equalized with Okazaki rising tall, like a kid in a metal gig, scoring past Cech. All this just 5 minutes.
The referee had a laissez-faire attitude towards the game, didn't intervene, and did let the game flow, Mr. Dean, didn't disappoint, at least this time, and as it seemed, the gunners would gain the lead back, Vardy scored with a well timed run, and a pin point accurate ball by Albrighton, (for a moment I wished if only Vardy could have been wearing an arsenal jersey) , that was a good finish. The gunners didn't give up, kept dancing towards the Schmeichel goal,like Vegas exotic dancers, in numbers , and with Danny's equalizer at the stroke of half time, the lead was cut down. Not too much pulchritude in the scoreline , but all square when the referee blew (chuckles, he always blows, umpteen times) 2-2.
In the second half, scoring early was the agenda, but Vardy had other plans, rose high to meet the accurate corner kick, and guided the ball past Cech again for the second time, making it to 3-2 to the visitors. Change is the only constant, hence on came Ramsey and Giroud, with some lovely exchanges between the midfielders, the decisive ball from Xhaka landed at Ramsey's immaculate touch, who scored the equalizer , making the crowd go frenzy and it was not the end of the night, as Giroud scored a wonderful header beyond the reach of Schmeichel, which hit the bar and went in, a fabulous finish by the French striker, and 3 points were in the bag. Arsenal nicked the win from the hands of Shakespeare's men who were just as a flabbergasted as an audience in a Shakespearean play.
Running for our lives
