Arsenal 1 – 1 Liverpool

// April 6th, 2008 // Adventure and Arsenal FC

Two under-strength sides were on display at the Emirates yesterday for the first match I’ve attended in person in nearly two years. With both sets of managers and players looking ahead to the second leg of their Champions League quarterfinal at Anfield on Tuesday night, it’s no wonder that it was a less than stellar performance from both sides.

Peter Crouch opened the scoring just before the end of the first half, as Arsenal looked quite poor. However, the second half was all Arsenal.  Nick Bendtner started things off just five minutes into the half with a good header to level the score. There were no more goals in either team, and at full time, the skies opened and the rain came pouring down, as if to comment on the football that’d just been played. Here’s hoping Tuesday’s the cracker everyone expects it to be.
