AMR) Tomas Rosicky – 7
One of the sole reasons as to why his team upped the pace in the second half with one moment of brilliance almost setting up Ozil with a tap-in.
AML) Alexis Sanchez – 8
Finally ended his goal drought and his endeavor has returned, at times too individual but finally scored a wonderful goal which proved to be the winner.
CF) Olivier Giroud – 8
Held the ball up marvelously and his sheer determination opened the scoring.
Substitutes:
Laurent Koscielny – 6
Came on for the injured Gabriel in the first half and could’ve gotten closer to Austin before the forward fired home.
Danny Welbeck – N/A
Came on for the dying embers of the game as Arsenal ran down the clock.
