Arsene Wenger recently prefers Theo Walcott to Olivier Giroud as Walcott and Sanchez continues to impress together. The first goal was scored by Sanchez and it was Ozil's key pass from the edge of the penalty box saw Sanchez cheekly back heel the ball into the goal mouth. It was definitely a great goal from such a wonderful piece of skill.
The next counter attack from Arsenal saw themselves extending the lead once again. It was just a minute ago when Sanchez scores and this time around, Ozil the provider earlier became the goal scorer. Neat passes from Sanchez and Walcott before finally a square pass to Ozil who was unmarked. A quality like Ozil will not be missing out on such a golden opportunity to score and further extend the lead for his team.
It was all one way traffic with Arsenal pushing forward aggressively and they were rewarded with the third goal from Alexis Sanchez on the 19 minute. Theo Walcott once again turned provider to assist in Sanchez's goal. Sanchez took the ball and smashed it into the top corner and definitely a contender for goal of the week.
Aaron Ramsey who was the previous goal scorer back in year 2011 but he missed a great opportunity to score. Opportunities did come by for Arsenal and Manchester United through the second half but both teams did not capitalize on it. Great results for the Gunners but definitely a disappointing result for the Red Devils.
