Arsenal and Manchester battle out for a draw

The most anticipated match of the season so far between Arsenal and Manchester United finished in a draw. The match was dull for the first half except for the late injury time suicide goal from Gallas. But the match really strolled to the expectation in the second half as gunners labelled the scoreline with a goal from their young spaniard midfield maestro Fabregas. Ronaldo again took the Red Devils to a lead but again Gallas pulled one back in the dying minutes of the match. Overall the match was an entertaining one.

Liverpool and Blackburn shared points by finishing match in a goalless draw. Middlesbrough and Tottenham also shared points by mamaging a 1-1 draw. West Ham and Bolton also took 1 point each as they just manage to play a draw. Aston Villa, Everton,Chelsea, Manchester City all won their matches against Derby, Birmingham, Wigan and Sunderland respectively. Fulham also won the match against Reading 3-1.

The surprise result of the weekend was produced by the Pompey as they won a match against Newcastle at their very own ground 4-1. Pamarot,Benjani, Utaka scored 3 goals in 3 minutes and Kranjcar scored the other while Michael Owen pulled one back for the Magpies.
