William Gallas punished a rare mistake by Petr Cech to give Arsenal a hard-fought 1-0 win against Chelsea on Sunday that proved Arsene Wenger's side are ready to fight for the Premier League title. Gunners captain Gallas, a former Chelsea player, settled a brutal encounter with a first half header to send Arsenal back to the top of the table after they briefly lost pole position to Manchester United earlier on Sunday.
Defeat for Chelsea leaves Avram Grant's side six points behind the Gunners and possibly without captain John Terry for some time after the England defender suffered a suspected broken foot. After Manchester United's 1-0 win at Liverpool, Wenger's side found themselves in second place and forced to play catch-up.
But Arsenal had done enough to celebrate their first win over Chelsea in 12 attempts.
