Did they really have to fall behind just to start playing at their actual level? Funnily enough, the Gunners fans in the stands had already grown used to it. In their minds, falling behind simply meant Arsenal was gearing up for a comeback. So, they sat comfortably in the stands, ready to just sit back and enjoy the show.
However, today's script wasn't following the usual plot. Wang Shuo was sitting on the bench.
One of the two main culprits for the team falling behind, Gibbs, won a free kick on the left side just outside the penalty area in the 22nd minute. Off that set piece, Koscielny met the ball at the near post and headed it home.
1-1!
