Robin van Persie Guns Down Arsenal

11 years ago

Robin van Persie scored against his former club Arsenal, to give Manchester United a 1-0 win at Old Trafford.

Van Persie rose to meet a Wayne Rooney corner on 27 minutes to give David Moyes a much needed win on another amazing weekend, in which Chelsea’s home draw on Saturday was followed within 24 hours by shock defeats for Tottenham and Manchester City. United have now closed to within five points of Arsenal, who suffered their first league defeat since the opening day of the season.
