but an own goal

London, England (SportsNetwork. Chicago Bulls Store .com) - It was a smash-and-grab performance from Manchester United at the Emirates on Saturday as the Red Devils turned a drab performance into a 2-1 victory over Arsenal. Arsenal controlled large spells of the match, but an own goal from Kieran Gibbs and a late strike from Wayne Rooney helped lift United to fourth place in the table with 19 points. The Gunners tested David De Gea with a flurry of early chances, but the United goalkeeper was equal to the task, turning up with save after save to keep the hosts at bay. United eventually settled into the game but still found themselves second- best, until a moment of fortune in the 56th minute allowed the visitors to steal the lead against the run of play. A cross into the box was punched away by Wojciech Szczesny, but the Arsenal goalkeeper collided with Gibbs in the process. Antonio Valencia was arriving to smash the loose ball toward goal and his attempt redirected off of Gibbs and just inside the far post. Hard done by the opener, the Gunners threw numbers forward in search of an equalizer, and United punished them in the 85th minute when a well- orchestrated counter saw Rooney get through on goal and chip a shot into the back of the net. United had another glorious chance early on in stoppage time when Angel Di Maria found himself through on goal, but the Argentine failed to convert from close range, sending his effort just wide of the post. Arsenal would pull one back deep into stoppage time as substitute Olivier Giroud latched on to a ball of the top and hammered a left-footed effort into the top corner, but United held off the hosts to hand Louis van Gaal his first away win in Premier League play. Arsenal sees its 23-match home unbeaten run come to an end, leaving the Gunners in eighth place on 17 points. Chelsea remained firmly atop the Premier League by cruising to a 2-0 defeat of 10-man West Bromwich Albion at Stamford Bridge on Saturday. The Blues produced early goals courtesy of Diego Costa in the 11th minute and Eden Hazard in the 25th minute, and the Baggies were left no way back into the match after Claudio Yacob earned himself a needless red card due to a rash challenge in the 29th minute. Chelsea improves to 32 points on the season to go seven points clear of Southampton, though the Saints can close the gap again with maximum points at Aston Villa on Monday. Manchester City maintained third place in the table by coming from behind in a 2-1 victory over Swansea City. The Welsh club had taken the lead after nine minutes when a well-worked move resulted in Wilfried Bony turning in the opening, but Stefan Jovetic pulled one back just 10 minutes later to bring the Citizens level. The winner came in the second half thanks to Yaya Toure, who nabbed his second goal of the season to put City on 24 points. Everton bounced back from two successive draws to rally for a 2-1 victory over West Ham United at Goodison on Saturday. Romelu Lukaku gave the Toffees a first-half lead only to see Mauro Zarate equalize 11 minutes into the second period, but Leon Osman made the most of Samuel Etoos superb square pass and tucked home a tidy finish for a 74th- minute winner. Rounding out Saturdays action, Danny Ings scored twice in the span of a minute to lead Burnley to a second consecutive victory with a 2-1 defeat of Stoke City, Moussa Sissoko netted the lone goal in Newcastles 1-0 win over QPR and Sunderland played to an uneventful 0-0 draw at Leicester City.

There will come a time during the season when something clicks in Justin Upton and all the rest of the Atlanta Braves have to do is hop on and enjoy the ride. Like now, for example. Upton went 2 for 4 with five RBI in Atlantas 11-3 thrashing over reeling Pittsburgh on Tuesday night. The Braves have won five straight and are 7-3 during Uptons current 10-game hitting streak. "He gets hot and he can carry us," Gonzalez said. "Hes done that a few months so its nice to have that big bat right behind (Freddie) Freeman, who is starting to roll the pole a little bit also." Uptons 24th homer — a three-run shot off Francisco Liriano (3-10) in the third — broke things open early. He added a two-run single off reliever Brandon Cumpton in the fifth as the Braves extended Pittsburghs losing streak to a season-high seven games. Jason Heyward went 2 for 5 with three RBI for the Braves while Evan Gattis hit his 19th homer on a tape-measure shot that landed halfway up the rotunda behind left field. "That was a joke," Upton said of Gattis shot. Aaron Harang (10-7) struck out four without a walk in 8 1-3 innings, his only misstep coming in the ninth when he couldnt quite nail down his first complete game in 14 months. "I was locating, getting ahead early, not deep into counts a lot," Harang said. "They were being really aggressive and swinging at pitches out of the zone. Guys were there to make plays for them." Harang even added his first RBI in two seasons, a single up the middle in the second that put the Braves up 1-0. Upton did most of the rest as the Braves ruined Andrew McCutchens return to the lineup for Pittsburgh. McCutchen went 0 for 4 in his first game back after missing two weeks with fractured cartilage in his ribs. The reigning National League MVP left the game after grounding into a double play in the bottom of the eighth. He reported no discomfort but allowed it may take a bit for his timing to come back. "This is definitely something Im trying to do, get back in the rhythm oof things, get back in the swing of things," he said. Cheap Bulls Jerseys. "That will come sooner rather than later." Travis Snider, Starling Marte and Russell Martin had two hits apiece for the Pirates, whose current losing streak is their longest since dropping seven straight Sept. 7-14, 2012. Lirianos real problems began in the third. He allowed singles by Phil Gosselin and Freddie Freeman to start the inning. Upton sent a lined shot over the wall in left to make it 4-0 and the Braves kept piling on. Liriano gave up nine runs, seven earned, in four-plus innings. He walked three and struck out four while his ERA rose from 3.78 to 4.18. "One of those nights anything you throw is gonna get hit," Liriano said. "Theyve been pretty hot last couple games. Ive got to put it behind me, got to move forward." TRAINERS ROOM Braves: After failing to retire a single batter against Charlotte in an International League game on Wednesday night, rehabbing right-handed reliever Shae Simmons will make a third appearance for Triple-A Gwinnett on Wednesday. Simmons, who has been on the disabled list since July 27 with a strained right shoulder, pitched one scoreless inning in his first outing last Saturday against Norfolk. Pirates: Shortstop Clint Barmes was given a night off in Triple-A Indianapolis as he recovers from a strained left groin that has sidelined him since late June. The 35-year-old Barmes went 0 for 3 in his first game with the Indians on Monday night. UP NEXT Braves: Alex Wood (9-9, 3.07 ERA) goes for his third straight victory on Wednesday for Atlanta. The 23-year-old has a 1.45 ERA over his last six starts but remains at .500 on the season because he receives the second-lowest run support in the majors. Pirates: Ace-in-training Gerrit Cole (7-4, 3.78 ERA) returns from his second stint on the disabled list on Wednesday. Cole hasnt pitched in the majors since being sidelined by right lat soreness on July 9. He pitches seven scoreless innings for Triple-A Indianapolis last Friday.
