Match Commentary
94' That's that! An entertaining game that never really sprang to life. Plenty of action though, and a rather harsh sending off to boot. Liverpool stay top but Chelsea will depose them if they beat Everton. Arsenal remain eight points behind, and it remains an uphill battle for them. Thanks for your company. |
93' What a terrible kick from Almunia. Gallas went forward as they won a free-kick but the keeper smashed it out of play near the corner flag. |
92' Clichy crosses and van Persie heads but its easy for Reina. Eboo-ue got a big cheer when he came on. |
