Arsenal hit four in opening Asia tour against Malaysia

Arsenal eased to a 4-0 victory over a Malaysia XI in the opening match of their Asia tour at the Bukit Jalil Stadium. Aaron Ramsey scored from the penalty spot after just five minutes following a foul on Jack Wilshere.

Theo Walcott doubled the Gunners lead before half-time with a well taken lob. Carlos Vela made it 3-0 just before the hour, and fellow substitute Tomas Rosicky nodded in during stoppage time following good work from Andrey Arshavin.

Arsenal will play the second match of their Asia tour in China, facing Hangzhou Greentown on Saturday.
