What a jolly good Double!

How memorable…coming from behind to level the match and then to snatch all three points with a beautifully executed winner in injury time. What a revival!

Oh dear… after Patrice Evra had race across the turf and sent a cross for Rooney to head in at the far post…I was like, not again... falling behind at the Emirates again.

The hunt for the equaliser was on. The match swung from one end to another till Robin Van Persie fired the equaliser with seven minutes remaining. It came from a pass from Henry. It could have been either a miscue shot or an ingenious deliberate back flick for Van Persie to slam the ball home.

Then the moment came… deep into injury time, Eboue whipped over an accurate pin-point cross from the right and captain Henry rose so majestically to bullet his stunning header past lanky Van der Sar. I rank this goal as high and crucial as the one he lobbed over Barthez in a Arsenal-Man Utd encounter quite sometime back.

What a night! Grand Slam Weekend ended according to my wish list…big spending Chelsea losing and the Gunners beating the Red Devils and in so, doing a Double over them this season. On a sad note, Van Persie broke his fifth metatarsal.
