Not a good result for the Gunners. They will be at home for the second leg, but they will need to greatly improve on their finishing (what’s new) to advance.

Half Time: PSV 0-0 Arsenal
By: Trent | No Comments
Nothin’ doin’ at the half. Arsenal have shown more signs of life, but neither team is giving much up in this Champions League match.
In fact, it looks as if all three British teams (Arsenal, Celtic, ManYoo) will head into half time at 0-0.
Only Real Madrid, currently thumping Bayern Munich 3-1, has shown dominance thus [...]

Full Time: Arsenal 0-0 Blackburn

Not much to add to that FA Cup 5th-round scoreline. Arsenal had more chances, Blackburn did some decent defending, and Aliadiere was obviously fouled in the box but the ref had gone missing. The Rovers will be pleased with the result.
