Manchester United 0 Arsenal 0
21 September, 2003
Premier League, Old Trafford
Remembered for a tumultuous finale in which Arsenal captain Patrick Vieira was sent off, Arsenal players were involved in a melée which later led to four bans and a record fine for the club for failing to control its players, and United striker Ruud van Nistelrooy missed a late penalty. The miss kept alive Arsenal's fledgling unbeaten league run which did not end until the following season, when Arsenal were beaten 2-0 by United at Old Trafford in October. That game was marred by post-match incidents which became known as the 'battle of the buffet'.
