Arsenal Tops EPL
December 27, 2013 by staff
Arsenal Tops EPL, Arsenal is on top of the Premier League heading into the second half of the season as Arsene Wenger looks to win the trophy for the first time in a decade.
Liverpool’s stay atop the standings lasted less than a week. Arsenal came from behind to win 3-1 at West Ham behind Theo Walcott’s two goals, and Liverpool lost 2-1 at Manchester City on Thursday.
As Liverpool dropped to fourth, City climbed a place to second to sit a point behind Arsenal after the traditional Boxing Day program with every team in action.
Chelsea is wedged between City and Liverpool in third after Eden Hazard’s swerving shot secured a 1-0 victory over Swansea.
With Manchester United recovering to win 3-2 at Hull, the only Boxing Day shock came from last-place Sunderland, which beat Everton.
U.S. goalkeeper Tim Howard was ejected for Everton for bringing down Ki Sung-Yeung, who then scored from the penalty spot to give Sunderland a 1-0 victory against the fifth-place team.
Newcastle is closing in on the top four after routing Stoke 5-1 to remain ahead of United in sixth place.
