Stoke (B2B) - Satu gol Jonathan Walters pada menit 76 dari titik penalti membuat Arsenal terjungkal di tangan tuan rumah Stoke City pada laga Liga Premier di Britannia Stadium malam ini.
Arsenal terjegal tuan rumah yang menempati posisi 12 di klasemen, Stoke City, padahal mendominasi permainan dengan 57 persen penguasan bola, seperti dilansir Yahoo News.
Setelah bermain 0-0 sampai menit 76, bencana menimpa Arsenal ketika Laurent Koscielny dinyatakan hand ball di kotak penalti.
Jonathan Walters tak menyia-nyiakan peluang ini untuk mengonversi satu-satunya gol dalam laga ini sekaligus penentu kemenangan Stoke.
Stoke - Arsenal's Premier League title challenge suffered a blow as Jon Walters' second-half penalty saw them condemned to a 1-0 defeat at Stoke.
Walters stepped up in the 76th minute to slot home a spot-kick he had won when his flick struck the arm of Laurent Koscielny in the Gunners box.
Stoke were certainly good value for their victory, only their second in 11 Premier League fixtures, as they claimed another notable scalp for the season - following on from home triumphs against Chelsea and Manchester United - and once again proved to be Arsenal's bogey side.
Since the Potters were promoted to the top-flight in 2008, they have hosted Arsenal seven times and lost only once.
