Arsenal 1 - 1 Middlesbrough

I was out this weekend with no access to Fox Soccer Channel, so I haven’t seen this game yet. I can only imagine the frustration level of everyone who did watch it was dangerously high, much like the past several league matches.

What I do know from text messages (Thanks Cam!) and reading other reports is that Boro took the lead thanks to former Gunner Jeremie Aliadiere, and then we were profligate in front of goal until Kolo’s header in the 86th minute. Thank God for that. It’s bad enough to have dropped five points to Boro, but all six? Anyway, ManUre won, Chelsea won, basically everyone but us and Spurs won, meaning we’ve dropped to second on goal-difference behind ManUre, and they’ve got a game in hand. So, as it stands, we’re now in a bit of trouble when it comes to the title race. We’ve got Chelsea away next week, and if we don’t get all three points there, we’ll be in a whole lot of trouble title-race wise.
