Below I have embedded some video highlights of the crazy record-breaking match that took place last night at the Madejski Stadium.
Credit must go to Reading, who put in a strong performance in the first half and gave Arsenal a major scare. Brian McDermot could have just played a boring, defensive game and hoped to nick a winner, but Reading really went at us from the start and took advantage of some truly terrible defending.
At 4-0 down after 37 minutes I don’t think that anybody could have predicted an Arsenal comeback, but Theo Walcott put in a stellar performance and the introduction of Olivier Giroud had a huge impact. There was even a good performance from Maroune Chamakh, who may yet prove to play an important part in the Arsenal team this season.
Reading 5-7 Arsenal(Capital One Cup)
It must have been a crazy game the fans would had their heart in their mouths at 4-0down then would not know what to do with themselves when it ended 5-7 value for money i think so.Will this display be enough to up the money to Walcott i did smile that the two players who will more and likely leave after January scored and would put themselves in the shop window for other clubs to consider.As for reading only seen your highlights but they looked like they played well cannot see them staying up with performances like this they have a worst defense than Arsenal had last season only hope we are not on the other end of this result at united
