Arsenal Get Through..........great

What’s new! Arsenal has once again scrapped through to the next round(Please excuse me while i contain me excitement), this time in very controversial fashion. Porto was the much better side throughout the match and hit the woodwork twice. The controversy comes from the actions of both teams in the last 5 five minutes of the game when both side, who only needed a draw to advance, sat back and virtually refused to attack. This has been seen before in other games, most recently for me was the match between Sweden and Demark in Euro 2004. There has been things said that the draw was arranged but these are pretty doubtful at best. In the end this result is good for English football and means that all the premiership teams topped their respected groups
