Arsenal team's 49-game winning streak comes to an end

Arsenal's 49-game unbeaten streak was ended on October 24, 2004 by Manchester United.

The match was played at Manchester United's home ground, Old Trafford, and ended with Manchester United defeating Arsenal 2-0.

In the match, Wayne Rooney made a penalty, Fanny opened the scoring with a penalty shot, and in the closing stages, Rooney took a pass from Alan Smith and wrapped it up to seal the win. The match was controversial, for example, there were some penalty disputes in the match. But no matter what, Man U managed to end Arsenal's 49-game unbeaten streak.

Arsenal's 49-game unbeaten streak began on May 7, 2003, when Arsenal thrashed Southampton 6-1, and continued thereafter until October 24, 2004, when Arsenal remained unbeaten for a long period of time in the Premier League. This record was a remarkable achievement in the Premier League at the time.

The performance of the players of the two teams in the match on October 24, 2004, in which Manchester United ended Arsenal's 49-game unbeaten streak with a 2-0 victory at home, is as follows:

Manchester United player:

Wayne Rooney: Played extremely well and was a key player in United's win. He created a penalty and scored a goal in the 93rd minute from an Alan Smith assist. Rooney, who was only 19 years old at the time, showed great impact power and excellent sense of goal, and his aggressive running and breakthroughs created a lot of trouble for Arsenal's defense, and became one of the biggest contributors to the end of Arsenal's unbeaten record.

Fanny: Successful self-redemption. A year ago in the meeting between the two teams, Fanny was awarded a penalty kick before the end but missed the opportunity, and also led to the opposing captain Vieira red card sent off. In this game, Rooney created a penalty kick by Fanny hit, he calmly scored the ball to help Manchester United take the lead. After scoring the goal, Fanny looked up to the sky and let out the emotions in his heart.

Gary Neville: was aggressive on the defensive end, successfully defending against Arsenal players on a number of occasions. However, his defensive actions against Arsenal winger Reyes were large and several vicious fouls caused some controversy.

Other players: Ferdinand, Scholes and other players also played important roles in defense and midfield organization, which laid the foundation for the team's victory. The team's defense managed to limit Arsenal's attack for most of the game, and the midfielders controlled the game's tempo better, creating opportunities for the strikers.

Arsenal player:

Henry: As Arsenal's central player, Henry was heavily targeted by the United defense in this game. He failed to score despite making some great runs and holding the ball up. He had a couple of good chances to shoot in the match, but either the United goalkeeper Carroll parried them away heroically or failed to capitalize on his own shot.

Yong Berry: Yong Berry was active at the start of the game and had a one-touch chance, but went down after colliding with Ferdinand and the referee did not make a call. This also affected the rhythm of Arsenal's attack to a certain extent.

Reyes: had some breakthroughs and passes on the offensive end, but was repeatedly put down by the Neville brothers and was keyed on by the United players, which affected his play to some extent.

Vieira: As the core of Arsenal's midfield and captain, Vieira played a certain role in the organization and defense of the midfield, but the team as a whole was at a disadvantage in this game, and he was unable to lead the team to turn the situation around.
