Arsenal 0 - 1 Crystal Palace: Debut Goal For Hangeland

Against the run of play, Crystal Palace find themselves in front.

https://vine.co/v/M3KZ2v71qVV For 30 minutes Arsenal have been in control of the game at the Emirates and, having started brightly, were beginning to misplace a few too many passes and looked a little lazy in possession. Aaron Ramsey had a big penalty shout turned down having linked up well with Wilshere in the box. He turned past Scott Dann who then appeared to push him to the ground but nothing was given. Cue a misplaced pass in midfield from Chambers, under no pressure at all, and Crystal Palace launch a quick counterattack. After some scrappy defending from Koscielny who blocked a long range effort on an open goal and then won a last ditch tackle, risking a red card, Palace won a corner. https://twitter.com/CPFC/status/500689568975568896 Up stepped the tower that is Brede Hangeland who glances home a header without an Arsenal defender in sight. Game on now.
