It wasn't the prettiest of finishes, but Lukas Podolski has put Arsenal in the lead against Tottenham Hotspur as the first half comes to a close.
Tottenham had been pegged back in their own area, and when Mikel Arteta tried to play the ball into the area, the ball took a bounce off Tom Huddlestone to find Lukas Podolski bearing down on Hugo Lloris' goal. He was marshalled by William Gallas, but the German striker's shot took a deflection off the Frenchman's heels, slowly rolling past Hugo Lloris and into the corner of Tottenham's goal.
It's bad news for Andre Villas-Boas, who finds his team a goal and a man down, and would surely have been hoping to keep the scores level until half-time. It's not all been one-way traffic, but barring a red card for Arsenal, it's difficult to see a way for Tottenham to get something from this game.
