Arsenal First English Club Through To Knockout Stages

A Robin van Persie brace secured Arsenal's progression from Champions League Group F with a 2-1 victory over Borussia Dortmund at the Emirates Stadium.

After a frenetic first half which produced little, Van Persie gave his side a 49th minute lead with a clinical header after fine work out wide from the inspired Alex Song, before the Arsenal captain doubled his tally from close range four minutes from time.
