Absolute Drama At The North London Derby



The North London Derby happened this weekend as Arsenal defender Kieran Gibbs scored the equaliser as Arsenal drew 1-1 with their bitter rivals Tottenham Hotspur in a very intense but fairly exciting grudge match that could have gone either way for both teams.

Arsenal had been absolutely dominated most of the game and matters became worse when Tottenham Hotspur star striker Harry Kane scored the opener just before half time. Almost into the last 10 minutes of the game, Arsenal made a substitution by bringing on Gibbs for Joel Campbell. This substitution proved to be a masterclass decision by Arsene Wenger, (the manager of Arsenal) because 3 minutes later, Gibbs scored the equaliser in 77th minute of the game from a tight angle after an amazing run by himself who then received the pass from teammate Mesut Ozil and shoots to score. The Arsenal fans went mad after that goal and the result stayed as the match ended 1 all. After the Gibbs even quoted “I did expect the fact that I will score but we did not get the result we wanted”. This is still a shame for the Arsenal as they have not beaten their rivals in the Premier League since March 16 2014.
