Arsenal 2 v 0 Napoli Ozil (8), Giroud (15)
Arsenal in comfortable win over Napoli. It was a great start for the home side after two goals in the opening 15 minutes was enough to beat Napoli. Ozil opened the scoring after slotting home a Ramsay cross before Giroud was on hand to finish from an Ozil cross. Napoli never threatened the Arsenal goal in the first half but came closest when Insigne fired high of the target. The second half was pretty tame as Napoli continued to struggle in front of goal. Inler could only blaze over before Insigne had a tame effort saved easily. Koscielny came close to a third goal for Arsenal but his shot was well saved.
My Opinion:
My man of the match was Ozil for his goal and an assist. Very strong performance from Arsenal who will be encouraged by this win. Napoli struggled to get into the game and were never really a threat.
Steau Bucharesti 0 v 4 Chelsea Ramires (19,55), Georgievski (og,44), Lampard (90)
Dominant Chelsea thrash Steau Bucharesti. Chelsea got off to a fast start and took early control of the game. Schurrle had his effort blocked early on before Ramires opened the scoring after a delightful little chip over the goalie. The away team went 2-0 up just before half time as Georgievsky put the ball into his own net after an unfortunate touch. Ramires scored his second of the night ten minutes into the second half by smashing the ball into the near side of the goal. Mata then hit the post before Cech was forced into tipping the ball over after a long range chip effort. Oscar fired over whilst Schurrle curled his shot wide. Cech made two decent saves in the final ten minutes before Lampard's long range low drive went in off the post in the dying moments to cap off a fine win for the Blues.
My Opinion:
My man of the match was Ramires who scored two goals. Steau were simply outclassed tonight but came close to scoring on a few occasions. Chelsea showed their class and dominated from the start. A deserved victory whilst Ramires and Schurrle impressed.
Best Goal: Contenders: Ozil, Lampard, Draxler. Winner: Ozil
