While Manchester United, Chelsea FC and Liverpool FC came out on top on Saturday, the other top ranked English team vying for the UEFA Champions League title fell. Arsenal FC lost 2-1 to Hull City AFC yesterday, making it their first home game loss since April 2007.
Arsenal couldn’t handle Hull’s physical play or their aggressive attacking offense. Although Arsenal had more time of possession in the first half, they couldn’t pull it together and beat the strong Hull defense. The loss is a big blow to Arsenal, dropping them from first to fourth standings in the league.
Arsenal is not out of the championship race by any means, however they really need some big wins to keep them up on top. Man U, Chelsea and Liverpool are playing very good soccer and with the lost to Hull, Arsenal needs to keep their confidence up.
