Match Report: Arsenal 1-2 Hull City
Arsenal took on Premier League newcomers Hull City at the Emirates Stadium on a sunny Saturday evening in north London.
14 goals in the Gunners’ last 4 games gave Arsene Wenger’s side something positive to build from and it looked set to continue with an easy-looking game against Phil Brown’s troops.
Hull were certainly no mugs coming into the game though, 8 points out of a possible 15 would normally be the mark of a ‘top four’ team, something that Arsenal had to be aware of.
