Good
performances from Henry, Ljungberg and Vieira, who was a towering presence
in the heart of the Arsenal midfield, will lift the Londoners as they prepare
to resume their Champions League challenge in midweek. |
| 90 |
Arsenal
dominated from start to finish against a very poor Southampton side, short
on ideas and purpose. It could be argued that the Gunners should have scored
more but in the end, they will be content with the three points. |
| 90 |
The
final whistle goes to bring this one-sided game to an end |
| 90 |
Pires
bursts forward with purpose and lays the ball off to Henry. Henry tries
to return the pass but his cross turns into an unlikely shot as he miss-hits
it and squirms past the post |
| 90 |
Parlour
makes space for himself on the right and cuts inside. He looks for an opening
but the Southampton defence are quick to close him down |
| 90 |
Ray
Parlour enjoys a spell of possession but the attack breaks down when Grimandi
over hits his return pass |
