Ajax 0 - 1 Arsenal

Thanks to new boy Alexander Hleb, and 18 year old Arturo Lupoli, Arsenal ran out 1-0 winners over hosts Ajax at their opening match of the Amsterdam Tournament today.

It took 87 minutes of waiting before the goal, but it was worth it just to see Hleb juke the Ajax defense and send a pin-point through ball to Lupoli who drove it home.

A nice win, as it puts the Gunners in a postion to win the tournament when they face Porto on Sunday. Porto beat Boca Juniors 2-0 in the early match tonight.

GolTV will most likely be showing the Ajax v Arsenal match again at 9PM ET tonight, as it currently leads the Viewers Choice voting. However, regardless of whether they show it at 9PM, it willl definitely be aired again at 2 AM ET.

If you don’t have GolTV, make sure you at the very least catch the highlights somewhere, if only to see Hleb’s setup.
