QUIZ QUESTION: WHO SCORED IN A CHAMPIONS LEAGUE MATCH AND NEVER HAD A SHOT ON TARGET?
Here's a new football quiz question for you.Who scored a goal in a European Champions League match and never had a shot on target? Answer:Arsenal.That's what happened in the Nou Camp on Tuesday as Arsenal lost 3-1 to the brilliant holders Barcelona and went out 4-3 on aggregate.Most people agree the sending off of Robin Van Persie by Swiss referee Massimo Busacca was wrong but Arsenal were outplayed by Barca and had not managed a shot on goal when Van Persie received his second yellow.It was 1-1 thanks to an own goal by Busquets.Barca may have won against 11 men but certainly Arsenal were hard done by.Still it does not excuse Wenger's pathetic behaviour at the ref afterwards and he deserves to be charged by UEFA. Decisions sometimes go for you or against you.As if the referee was going to change anything after the final whistle.Managers have to show restraint and discipline.Their continual rantings at the fourth official are pathetic and so was Wenger's behaviour.Passion and frustration are no excuse.Pick on their own players shortcomings.Why no ranting at Bendtner who with better control could have put Arsenal through in the closing seconds.Its always the ref!
