Goals from Olivier Giroud and a Damian Delaney own goal fell
either side of a crisp Joel Ward equaliser which meant Arsenal left Selhurst
Park with a crucial first away win of the season.
The game was an even affair and palace was unlucky not to
get a point from the game as debutant Conner Wickham struck the post whilst pace
men Bolasie and Zaha looked useful whilst Francis Coquelin was lucky to avoid
being sent off for persistant fouling yet ultimately the crisp build up play of
Arsenal was too much. Debutant Yohan Cabaye linked up well with Jordan Mutch
linked up together to create Crystal Palace’s best
chances but in the end they fell short due to a lack of understanding moving
forward.
A clinical Arsenal display was characterised by a superb
scissor kick volley from Olivier Giroud meant South London hearts was broken
whilst an own goal by Damian Delaney gave Arsenal the win cancelling out a Joel
Ward equaliser
