| Man of the moment Eduardo grabbed the winner as Arsenal fought
back from going 2-0 down inside five minutes to win their opening
Champions League Group H clash away to Standard Liege.
The Croatia marksman was only available because the club successfully
appealed against UEFA's two-match ban imposed for diving against
Celtic in the second leg of the qualifying tie.
So it was probably fitting Eduardo had the final say as Arsenal
recovered from a terrible start to open their group campaign with
a morale-boosting away win.
It had not looked good early on though as before Arsene Wenger's
men could get going they trailed 2-0 only to fight back superbly
with a well-taken goal from Nicklas Bendtner on the stroke of half-time,
with Belgium international Thomas Vermaelen bundling in an equaliser
and Eduardo then completing the revival 10 minutes from time. |
