Ten-man Arsenal defeat Portsmouth. Aston Villa deny Chelsea points. Blackburn get by Manchester City.

Sunday Sept. 2, 2007

Arsenal 3 - 1 Portsmouth
The Gunners played most of the second half a man down after Philippe Senderos (rc 49') was sent off for a last-man-standing tackle from behind on Nwankwo Kanu. Fortunately for Arsenal they led at that point 2-0. Early in the match Emmanuel Adebayor (pen 8') converted a penalty kick after Pompey goalkeeper fouled Robin Van Persie. Later in the first half, Francesc Fabregas (35') scored for Arsenal. After Senderos was sent off Arsenal scored yet again on a goal by Tomas Rosicky (59') but Portsmouth quickly responded with a goal by Nwankwo Kanu (60').

Blackburn 1 - 0 Manchester City
Benedict McCarthy (13') scored early for the Rovers and it held up for the entire match.

Aston Villa 2 - 0 Chelsea
Two second half goals by Zat Knight (47') and Gabriel Agbonlahor (88') earned the three points for Villa. Chelsea were without Frank Lampard.

Who's leading the conversation?
This visualization below allows you to see the impact that each user has on the current conversation. The top row contains the group of users who have had the most impact, the 2nd row the group of users who have had the 2nd most impact (et cetera). Users with similar impact are grouped together, and the average score of the group is shown to the left of the group. The author of the article is also shown on the left, in their corresponding group. Each user's score is based on the number of comments the user has made plus the number of votes their comments have received. The scores are calculated relative one another, so while their absolute value is not particularly important, their relative difference does indicate a larger difference in impact on the conversation.

Arsenal looked good even when down a man.
