West Brom Equalize Arsenal on Flying Volley off Free Kick

The ravishing Olivier Giroud gave Arsenal a brief 1-0 lead in the first half against West Brom, on a fine header off a free kick. About seven minutes later, West Brom got a free kick of their own and James Morrison went airborne to kick it into the far corner of the goal. Chris Brunt sent the ball in with a perfect touch and arc for Morrison, who slipped in front of two Gunners to hit the volley.

Here’s another angle that gives you a great look at precision of Brunt’s kick:

And I guess it’s a bit unfair to mention Giroud and not at least show him, huh? It’s the right thing to do.
