Barcelona Break Emirate Jinx, Trash Arsenal 0-2 At Emirate


Barcelona became historical yesterday at Emirate Stadium when they trashed their host Arsenal at Emirate stadium  for the first time.

The match ended 0-2 in favour of the Catalans after a resistant Gunners who had held their opponent goaless in the first half came out in the second half to attack.

Arsenal's 72 minutes attack which they lost, saw a determined Barcelona go into counter-attack and with Neymar, passed the ball to Messi in the 18-yard box who scores the first goal of the match dribbling Petr Czech seated on the ground before he scored the goal.

The second goal came through a penalty  awarded to Barcelona after Messi was brought down in the 18-yard box and he sent Petr Czech to the left hand side of the goal while Czech went the other direction.

The win puts Arsene Wenger's men under serious pressure to beat Barcelona at Camp Nou by at least 3-0. This may be possible but seems very unrealistic.
