Arsenal 3 – 0 Newcastle

// August 30th, 2008 // Adventure

The good form started on Wednesday continued this afternoon as Robin van Persie’s two goals paced the Gunners to a 3-0 home victory over Newcastle United. The visitors from the north east were no match for the Londoners today, as Arsenal dominated all but a few minutes of the match. Newcastle barely got a touch on the ball all afternoon. Denilison added the third goal, his first for the Gunners, and Samir Nasri added to his new legend by giving ex-con Joey Barton a taste of his own medicine after the multiple felon took the new Arsenal man out with a late tackle.

So, a nice bit of momentum, right in time for… the international break. God, I hate these. No Arsenal until September 13th. Uggh.
