Cape Town - There's nothing more galling than a former player returning to haunt you - and that's exactly what Manchester United Dutch star Robin van Persie did to former employers Arsenal for the THIRD straight occasion on Sunday!
Sold to United ahead of last season, Van Persie scored the only goal in their English Premiership clash at Old Trafford to cut the gap between the two teams to just five points.
Van Persie was on target in the 27th minute to give Gunners boss Arsene Wenger even more grey hairs.
