Last night, Arsenal Football Club, otherwise known as the Gunners, scored a famous victory in a famous football stadium, the Bernabeu in Madrid. They, we, defeated Real Madrid 1-nil in the first leg of the knockout stages on the 2005/2006 Champions League.
It was a great game and a good result for us. But we need to finish off the job in the second leg at Highbury.
Thierry Henry was, well, Thierry Henry. What more can we can we say?
But spare a thought, also, for the man who IMHO has been far and away Arsenal's best and most consistent player this season: the goalkeeper Jens Lehmann. I had my doubts about Lehmann initially and I must admit they have lingered over the years. But this season he has laid all my doubts to rest. For good.
Surely he will be Gemany's first choice goalie in the World Cup laterthis year. Anything less will be a travesty.
Lehmann had a great game last night--once again this season.
In this sort of form, Lehmann may just be what Arsenal need to win their first European Cup.
