finally ended their streak of poor away performances against top teams
as Santi Cazorla and Olivier Giroud scored in each half on Sunday for a
2-0 victory at Manchester City.Cazorla converted a
penalty in the 24th minute and Giroud headed in the second in the 66th
as Arsenal ended second-place City's 12-game unbeaten run in all
competitions.
City dominated possession but Arsenal for
once showed the kind of defensive fortitude that so often has been
missing in big away games in recent seasons. Arsenal lost 6-3 at City
last season, to go with a 6-0 drubbing at Chelsea and 5-1 defeat at
Liverpool.
Arsenal climbed above Tottenham into fifth place, one point behind Manchester United.
