Nor the coaching change appears

to reverse the crisis results of

Chelsea. This Saturday, the''

Blues'' were defeated by West

games without a win for the

competition.

The third match Rafa Benitez had

to command the first defeat of

Chelsea and still unable to win. In

the first two meetings, equalized to

zero with Manchester City and

Fulham.

Today, in the first duel out of

doors, the Spaniard saw his team

start well, but be completely

dominated the second half.

With a good first half the '' Blues''

reached the lead in the 12th minute

through Juan Mata.

The advantage gained early

decreased the pressure on

Rafa Benitez's men, who

continued to play well,

exchanging passes quickly

and surpassing the marking

opponents.

In the second half, the hosts

came back with another

posture. With more

aggressive, West Ham

balanced actions and reached

draw on 63 minutes with a

goal from Carlton Cole.

He was given the motto for

the change in marker.

Mohamed Diame

accomplished the turnaround

at 86 and at 90 Modibo

of the home owners.

Arsenal learns to swim with the swans of Swansea (0-2)

Absolute surprise at the

Emirates Stadium! Arsenal

have not solved the game

while had the opportunity to

do so and ended up suffering

a heartbreak. Swansea City

took advantage of everything

for all Gunners and struck

two goals that froze London

at the end of the match.

Arsène Wenger surprised when

let in the bank Olivier Giroud

and brought a new offensive

quartet formed by Gervinho,

Podolski, Cazorla and Walcott.

Did not get along and the game

came to rest as it had begun.

In the second half, French

international striker eventually

came in, but without practical

effect.

Therefore, if it had not

forgotten, Arsenal can now

forget the possibility of

winning the Premier

League in 2012-13

At the last minute, too

balanced on offense,

Arsenal conceded two goals

before a mature and patient

Swansea City. The hero is

Spaniard and called Michu.

Man Utd defeat Reading with rain of goals in 1st Half

(3-4) At the Madejski Stadium, the

first half was not proper for

heart diseased people. Reading

and Man Utd played openly and

uncomplexed. Result? Seven

goals in 45 minutes of great

emotion. Then it was to rest.

The honors of the party were made

after just eight minutes when H.

Robson-Kanu opened the contest

for the home team. Shortly

thereafter, Anderson leveled and at

16 ', Wayne Rooney walked

around the marker.

From here, it was expected that the

red devils controled after the initial

carelessness, but no. Pure

deception. The forward Le Fondre

equalized strife and S. Morrison

stamped the 3-2 and somersault in

the new marker. Not enough?

Alright. In the half hour mark,

Wayne Rooney, assisted by Patrice

Evra, and came back to equalize

four minutes later, Van Persie

turned again.

In the second half, with Man Utd

to win by 3-4, and evened the

match talk by Alex Ferguson at

half-time should have resulted a

charm. Is that in the last 45

minutes, goals Lindegaard in goal

did not come back into existence.

With this triumph complicated,

Man Utd is now isolated leader of

the Premier League with 36

points, three more than

Manchester City. For its part

Reading follows in the relegation

zone in the penultimate, with just

nine points from 14 matches.

citizens were equal before the

rest even with Carlos Tevez to

Interview with Djurdjevic

I started playing football, because football is some-

thing I really love, I mean when I'm playing I feel

like the happiest person in the world.

Pressure is only before the match, after the match has started I just

forget about pressure and enjoy the match.

My favourite player is Xavi, a world class player, great playmaker,

excellent passes, impossible assists, imensly loyal player, honest

player and even better than all of this he doesnt make any mistake,

not even one.

Off The Pitch 17

In big matches, How do you handle the pressure?

Who is your favourite player and why?

One Football moment you can never forget in your

career?

How do you guys motivate each other in half time if you

are behind in scoreline?

The one moment I can never forget in my career was when the coach

told me to come in against Benfica for the Portuguese League Cup, I

played only 15 minutes but that small time changed my all view about

football, positively.

If we are playing good we know that it is just a matter of time and we

will turn the scoreboard to our side, if we are playing bad, forget every

mistake any of us made, relax and think if they did that in one part we

can do better on the second half.
